A  JOINT  RESOLUTION 

Authorizing  the  appointment  and  prescribing  the  duties  of  a  commission  to  investigate  and  report 
on  the  number,  character  of  duties,  and  compensation  of  persons,  in  the  employ  of  the 
State  Government ;  directing  the  co-operation  of  the  various  State  Departments,  boards, 
bureaus,  and  commissions  ;  and  making  an  appropriation. 

Section  1.  Be  it  enacted,  §rc,  That  the  Governor  is  directed  to  appoint  a  commission  to  be 
known  as  the  Economy  and  Efficiency  Commission.  It  shall  consist  of  three  persons  who  are  well 
versed  in  business  and  governmental  affairs,  and  in  systems  of  economy  and  efficiency  in  adminis- 
tration. Each  member  of  the  commission  shall  receive  an  annual  compensation  of  three  thousand 
dollars  ($3,000),  and  expenses  actually  and  necessarily  incurred  in  the  performance  of  his  duties. 
The  commission  may  employ  such  clerical,  stenographical,  and  other  assistance  as  the  work  may 
demand.  It  shall  be  the  duty  of  the  Commission  to  investigate  the  number,  character  of  duties 
and  compensation  of  all  persons  in  the  employ  of  the  State ;  and  to  ascertain  and  recommend  what 
changes,  if  any,  may  be  necessary  to  secure  greater  uniformity,  economy,  and  efficiency  in  the 
work  of  the  various  departments,  branches,  bureaus,  and  commissions  of  the  government  of  this 
State.  Upon  the  completion  of  its  work  the  Commission  shall  report  thereon  in  writing,  to  the 
Governor,  with  such  suggestions  and  recommendations  as  it  may  deem  proper.  Such  report  shall 
be  made  not  later  than  the  first  day  of  November,  one  thousand  nine  hundred  and  fourteen ;  where- 
upon the  work  of  the  commission  shall  cease.  The  Governor  shall  transmit  such  report  to  the 
next  General  Assembly,  with  such  recommendations  as  he  may  deem  proper.  It  shall  be  the  duty 
of  the  head  of  each  department,  bureau,  commission,  and  other  branch  of  the  government  to  afford 
the  Commission  ample  opportunity  and  facility  in  the  performance  of  their  work.  The  Auditor 
( leneral  shall  detail  at  least  one  expert  from  his  department  to  aid  the  commission  in  its  labors. 

Section  2.  To  carry  out  the  purposes  of  this  resolution  the  sum  of  twenty-five  thousand 
dollars  ($25,000),  or  so  much  thereof  as  may  be  necessary,  is  hereby  specifically  appropriated  for 
the  use  of  the  commission.  Payment  shall  be  made  on  order  of  the  chairman  of  the  commission, 
accompanied  by  itemized  and  verified  vouchers  and  on  warrant  of  the  Auditor  General. 

Approved — The  25th  day  of  July,  A.  D.  1913,  except  as  to  the  item  appropriating  $25,000 
to  carry  out  the  purposes  of  this  Resolution.  This  item  is  approved  in  the  sum  of  $10,000.  I 
withhold  mv  approval  from  the  remainder  of  said  appropriation  because  of  insufficient  State 
revenues

LETTER  OF  TRANSMITTAL 

December  24,  1914. 
Honorable  John  K.  Tener, 

Governor  of  the  Commonwealth  of  Pennsylvania, 

Harrisburg,  Pa. 

* 

My  Dear  Sir: — The  Economy  and  Efficiency  Commission  of  the  Commonwealth  of  Penn- 
sylvania respectfully  transmits  herewith  its  report  made  pursuant  to  the  provisions  of  an  Act  of 
the  General  Assembly  entitled :  "A  Joint  Resolution  authorizing  the  appointment  and  prescribing 
the  duties  of  a  commission  to  investigate  and  report  on  the  number,  character  of  duties,  and  com- 
pensation of  persons  in  the  employ  of  the  State  Government ;  directing  the  co-operation  of  the 
various  State  Departments,  boards,  bureaus  and  commissions  ;  and  making  an  appropriation," 
approved  the  25th  day  of  July,  A.  D.  1913  ;  also  appendix  showing  the  name  of  each  employe  of 
the  State  Government,  the  title  of  his  or  her  position,  duties  performed  and  compensation  received. 

We  have  the  honor  to  be,  with  great  respect, 

Very  truly  yours, 

The  Economy  and  Efficiency  Commission 
of  the  Commonwealth  of  Pennsylvania. 

HARRY  S.  McDEVITT, 

Chairman.

REPORT 


The  "Economy  and  Efficiency"  Commission  commenced  its  labors  with  the  full  knowledge 
that  the  task  assigned  it  was  stupendous,  and  early  adopted  a  policy  to  regulate  its  investigations, 
deliberations  and  conclusions.  That  is  to  say,  it  studied  the  problems  confronting  it  with  the' 
idea  that  economy  was  to  prevent  waste,  eliminate  duplication  of  work  and  prevent  conflict  of 
authority  if  found  to  exist.  The  Commission  realized  that  the  inauguration  of  a  system  of 
economy  at  the  expense  of  efficiency  would  result  in  the  accomplishment  of  neither. 

In  order  to  obtain  information  and  data  necessary  to  enable  the  Commission  to  understand 
in  a  comprehensive  way  the  responsibilities,  duties  and  internal  organization  of  the  various  De- 
partments, Boards  and  Commissions  coming  under  its  jurisdiction  it  inquired  especially  into  the 
following  subjects : 

1.  The  Acts  of  Assembly  creating  and  relating  to  the  various  Departments,  also  rules  and 
regulations  pertaining  to  or  relating  to  the  same. 

2.  The  name,  compensation  received  and  duties  actually  performed  by  each  employe,  and 
the  necessity  for  such  employment. 

3.  Whether  or  not  the  position  was  created  by  statute,  or  was  a  temporary  employment 
made  by  appropriation  from  session  to  session,  or  paid  out  of  the  fund  commonly  known  as  the 
Contingent  Fund. 

4.  Obsolete  Departments,  Boards  and  Commissions. 

5.  Duplication  of  work  and  conflict  of  authority. 

6.  Methods  of  centralization  and  improvement. 

It  is  universally  understood  in  the  business  world  that  to  command  ability,  thereby  bring- 
ing into  business  enterprises  efficiency,  it  is  necessary  to  provide  compensation  commensurate 
with  the  responsibilities  and  duties  imposed.  This  principle,  however,  is  not  to  any  great  extent 
found  in  the  administration  of  state  governments. 

Well  regulated  business  enterprises  in  order  to  prevent  waste  and  duplication  of  labor 
undergo  a  process  of  reorganization  at  least  every  decade,  eliminating  unnecessary  divisions  and 
departments  and  centralizing  and  consolidating  others.  Such  a  system  is  just  as  important,  if  not 
doubly  important,  in  the  administration  of  the  affairs  of  a  Commonwealth,  the  necessity  for  which 
is  emphasized  because  of  the  establishment  by  the  General  Assembly  from  time  to  time  of  new 
Departments,  Boards  and  Commissions. 

With  this  thought  in  mind  the  Commission  has  recommended  the  consolidation  of  certain 
branches  of  the  State  Government,  the  elimination  of  others  and  the  creation  of  new  Departments 
with  a  view  of  putting  State  affairs  on  a  sound  businesslike  basis ;  and  it  is  believed  that  a  study 
of  its  report  which  follows  will  prove  its  conclusion^  and  recommendations  to  be  sound  and 
worthy  of  prompt  and  favorable  legislative  enactment. 


CIVIL  SERVICE 

We  have  given  the  subject  of  Civil  Service  very  careful  consideration  and  feel  satisfied  that 
such  a  system  established  by  law  to  control  State  positions  would  be  to  the  best  interests  of  the 
entire  Commonwealth. 

The  conduction  of  such  examinations  should  be  delegated  to  the  State  Board  of  Examiners 
recommended  in  another  chapter. 


THE  STATE  BOARD  OF  EXAMINERS 

As  a  result  of  every  profession  conducting  its  own  examinations  for  admission  to  practice 
there  is  at  present  a  multiplicity  of  Examining  Boards  and  Commissions  in  this  Commonwealth. 
Some  of  them  are  a  source  of  considerable  revenue,  from  which  the  Commonwealth  derives  no 
benefit.  The  payment  of  the  fee  charged  in  many  instances  imposes  a  hardship  upon  the  appli- 
cant for  examination,  and  in  our  judgment  the  practice  should  be  discontinued. 

We  believe  that  if  these  examinations  were  all  conducted  by  the  State  under  one  Board 
the  cost  would  be  materially  decreased  to  the  advantage  of  the  applicants. 

We,  therefore,  recommend: — 

That  a  State  Board  of  Examiners  be  created  under  the  direction  of  the  Governor  and  the 
State  Board  of  Education,  to  replace  and  discharge  the  duties  of  the  Board  for  the  Examination 
of  Accountant,  the  State  Board  of  Examiners  for  the  Registration  of  Nurses,  the  State  Dental 
Examining  Board,  The  Pharmaceutical  Examining  Board,  the  State  Board  of  Veterinary  Medical 
Examiners,  the  State  Osteopathic  Examining  Board  and  the  State  Board  of  Undertakers. 

That  an  Advisory  Board  be  appointed,  to  consist  of  one  certified  public  accountant,  one 
registered  nurse,  the  president  of  the  Pennsylvania  State  Dental  Society,  one  recognized  Phar- 
macist, the  Dean  of  the  Veterinary  Department  of  the  University  of  Pennsylvania,  the  president 
of  the  Pennsylvania  Osteopathic  Association  and  the  president  of  the  State  Association  of  Under- 
takers, all  of  whom  should  serve  without  compensation. 

That  the  State  Board  conduct  all  examinations  for  State  positions  required  by  a  Civil 
Service  law  recommended  in  another  chapter. 

That  the  board  be  authorized  to  employ  expert  examiners  and  given  the  right  to  seek  the 
advice  of  experts  in  every  line  of  professional  activity. 


RETIREMENT  OF  STATE  EMPLOYES 

In  many  of  the  Departments  of  the  State  Government  there  are  attaches  who  have  devoted 
the  best  years  of  their  lives  to  the  State  service.  By  reason  of  their  long  and  faithful  application 
to  some  particular  work  they  have  become  unfitted  for  any  other  kind  and  are  entirely  dependent 
upon  the  State  service  for  their  existence. 

We  believe  that  individuals  who  have  given  the  State  such  long  and  faithful  service  should 
enjoy  the  benefits  of  a  Retirement  Act. 

We,  therefore,  recommend  that  legislation  be  enacted  providing  retirement  on  half  pay  for 
any  State  employe  who  shall  have  been  in  the  service  of  the  State  for  twenty-five  or  more  con- 
secutive years,  or  for  any  State  employe  who  shall  have  reached  the  age  of  seventy  years  and 
been  in  the  employ  of  the  State  for  twenty  or  more  consecutive  years.  The  legislation  should 
be  such  that  the  application  for  retirement  could  be  made  by  the  employe  himself  or  by  the  head 
of  his  Department. 

We  recommend  that  such  a  retirerrTfent  bill  subject  the  beneficiary  to  such  minor  duties  as 
the  head  of  his  former  Department  might,  under  extraordinary  circumstances,  assign  to  him. 


STATUTES  TO  COVER  POSITIONS 

The  statistics  compiled  by  this  Commission  show  at  the  present  time  that  the  State  service 
consists  of  5,152  positions.  Of  these  1,168  were  created  by  Statute;  2,752  were  created  by  Legis- 
lative Appropriation,  and  1,232  are  contingent  or  temporary  positions.  The  total  annual  pay-roll 
of  the  Commonwealth  is  $3,613,409.44.  Of  this  amount  $2,000,560.00  is  paid  for  the  statutory 
positions;  $1,162,258.90  for  those  created  by  appropriation,  and  $450,590.54  is  paid  from  con- 
tingent funds. 


In  view  of  the  large  amount  of  money  expended  and  the  many  positions  required  we  recom- 
mend that  legislation  be  enacted  creating  and  fixing  the  salary  of  every  position  in  every  Depart- 
ment We  recommend  discontinuing  the  practice  of  creating  positions  by  simply  increasing  ap- 
propriations. 

DUAL  OFFICE-HOLDING 

From  time  to  time  a  number  of  State  officials,  both  elective  and  appointive,  have  been 
given  additional  offices  by  legislative  enactment.  These  officials  have  been  designated  because  of 
the  nature  of  their  Departmental  work. 

We,  therefore,  recommend  that  legislation  be  enacted  making  such  officials  members  ex- 
officio  of  such  Boards  and  Commissions,  and  providing  one  salary  for  all  services. 

In  some  instances  a  subordinate  holds  several  positions  for  which  he  receives  additional 
compensation.  In  most  cases  this  system  has  been  an  economical  one.  To  provide  each  Board 
and  Commission  with  the  entire  services  of  a  clerk  or  secretary  would  have  cost  the  State  more 
than  under  the  present  system. 

We,  therefore,  recommend  that  legislation  be  enacted  combining  offices  wherever  their 
duties  are  compatible  and  providing  one  salary  for  all  services. 

The  Commission  disapproves  of  the  practice  of  using  the  contingent  fund  to  increase  the 
compensation  of  positions  created  by  statute  at  a  fixed  salary.  If  present  salaries  are  inadequate 
they  should  be  referred  to  the  General  Assembly  for  readjustment. 

OFFICE  HOURS 

In  order  to  facilitate  the  convenience  of  the  public  having  departmental  business  to  transact, 
we  recommend  that  all  Departments  be  open  for  the  transaction  of  official  business  from  9  a.  m. 
till  5  p.  m.,  with  at  least  one  hour  for  luncheon,  five  days  in  a  week,  and  from  9  a.  m.  till  12  noon 
on  Saturdays.  Also  that  all  Departments  be  closed  on  Saturdays  during  the  months  of  July 
and  August. 

OFFICE  ACCOMMODATIONS 

The  crowded  condition  of  the  Capitol  makes  it  apparent  that  with  the  creation  of  new  and 
the  development  of  old  Departments,  additional  office  accommodations  must  be  provided  imme- 
diately. 

At  present  the  State  has  leases  for  offices  in  Harrisburg,  outside  of  the  Capitol  building, 
aggregating  approximately  $7,500.00  per  annum. 

We,  therefore,  recommend  that  the  next  session  of  the  Legislature  make  an  appropriation 
for  the  immediate  erection  of  an  office  building  within  the  area  known  as  the  Capitol  Park  Ex- 
tension. 

AN  ACCOUNTING  AND  BOOKKEEPING  SYSTEM 

While  the  moneys  of  the  Commonwealth  are  expended  by  many  Departments,  Bureaus  and 
Commissions,  this  Commission  sees  no  reason  why  the  necessary  accounting  and  bookkeeping 
should  not  be  units  of  a  uniform  system.  In  many  Departments  where  the  accounting  system  is 
carried  on  upon  a  large  scale,  it  is  very  complicated.  This  is  the  result  of  patching  old  systems 
when  new  ones  should  have  been  introduced. 

We,  therefore,  recommend  that  legislation  be  enacted  creating  a  Commission,  consisting 
of  the  Banking  Commissioner,  the  Auditor  General  and  the  State  Treasurer,  to  investigate  account- 
ing and  bookkeeping  systems  and  to  adopt  one  that  can  be  used  in  all  Departments  of  the  State 
.Government. 


SEMI-MONTHLY  PAY 

An  Act  of  the  General  Assembly  approved  April  24,  1913,  reads  in  part  as  follows :  "Each 
person,  firm  or  corporation  employing  any  person  other  than  at  an  annual  salary  shall  pay  to  such 
person  his  or  her  earnings  or  wages  semi-monthly." 

As  practically  all  State  employes  are,  entirely  dependent  upon  their  salaries  for  their  main- 
tenance, we  recommend  that  legislation  be  enacted  extending  the  semi-monthly  pay  system  to 
State  employes. 

PAY-ROLLS  AND  APPROPRIATIONS 

It  is  our  conclusion  that  all  regular  monthly  salaries  for  attaches  of  State  departments 
and  institutions  should  be  paid  by  checks  issued  by  the  Treasury  Department.  The  present  prac- 
tice of  all  institutions  and  some  departments  paying  with  their  individual  checks  is  disapproved 
by  this  Commission. 

In  the  case  of  the  State  institutions  it  has  been  the  custom  for  the  Auditor  General's  De- 
partment to  audit  the  accounts  quarterly  and  then  to  reimburse  the  institutions  for  their  quarterly 
expenses.  In  consequence  of  this  system  these  institutions  have  been  obliged  to  borrow  money 
at  six  per  cent,  interest  to  meet  their  current  expenses  and  pay  their  monthly  salaries.  We 
believe  that  the  State  loses  more  on  account  of  these  six  per  cent,  loans  than  it  gains  by  keeping 
its  money  on  deposit  at  two  per  cent,  and  paying  it  out  quarterly. 

We,  therefore,  recommend  the  immediate  introduction  of  a  system  that  will  give  State  in- 
stitutions monthly  instead  of  quarterly  allowances,  so  that  they  can  meet  their  bills  when  due 
instead  of  borrowing  money  at  the  maximum  rate  of  interest. 

.    ( 

A  CAPITOL  POST  OFFICE 

The  disposition  of  the  incoming  and  outgoing  mail  for  the  State  Departments  would  be 
greatly  facilitated  if  the  Capitol  were  provided  with  a  sub-post  office. 

We  recommend  that  the  General  Assembly  petition  the  Federal  Government  to  provide  this 
accommodation. 

THE  GOVERNOR'S  ELECTION 

Section  4  of  Article  II  of  the  Constitution  provides :  "The  General  Assembly  shall  meet  at 
twelve  o'clock  noon  on  the  first  Tuesday  of  January,  every  second  year  and  at  other  times  when 
convened  by  the  Governor,  but  shall  hold  no  adjourned  annual  session  after  the  year  1878." 

Section  3  of  Article  IV  of  the  Constitution  provides :  "The  Governor  shall  hold  his  office 
during  four  years,  from  the  third  Tuesday  of  January  next  ensuing  his  election  and  shall  not 
be  eligible  to  the  office  for  the  next  succeeding  term." 

Section  13  of  Article  III  of  the  Constitution  provides :  "No  law  shall  extend  the  term  of 
any  public  officer,  or  increase  or  diminish  his  salary  or  emoluments,  after  his  election  or  appoint- 
ment." 

The  almost  simultaneous  convening  of  the  General  Assembly  and  the  inauguration  of  the 
Governor  cause  considerable  confusion  every  four  years.  We  recommend  that  the  General  As- 
sembly give  serious  consideration  to  the  question  of  changing  the  election  for  Governor  from  the 
even  to  the  odd  numbered  years.  Such  a  change  would  give  the  Chief  Executive  the  advantage 
of  a  year  in  office  before  confronting  him  with  the  task  of  making  recommendations  to  the  Gen- 
eral Assembly  as  required  under  Section  11  of  Article  IV  of  the  Constitution,  which  reads  as 
follows :  "He  (the  Governor)  shall,  from  time  to  time,  give  to  the  General  Assembly  information 
of  the  state  of  the  commonwealth,  and  recommend  to  their  consideration  such  measures  as  he 
may  judge  expedient." 


THE  GOVERNOR 

The  Executive  Department  consists  of  eleven  positions,  nine  of  which  were  created  by 
statute  and  two  by  contingent  fund.  In  addition  to  this  the  Executive  Controller's  Department, 
which  is  directly  connected  with  the  Executive  Deparment,  has  three  positions,  all  created  by 
statute.    The  combined  salaries  of  these  two  Departments  aggregate  $31,200.00  per  annum. 

The  Constitution  never  intended  that  the  Chief  Executive  should  be  called  upon  to  discharge 
fiscal  duties.  They  properly  belong  to  the  fiscal  officers  of  the  Commonwealth.  In  view  of  Sec- 
tion 10  of  Article  IV  of  the  Constitution,  which  provides,  "He  (the  Governor)  may  require  in- 
formation in  writing  from  the  officers  of  the  Executive  Department,  upon  any  subject  relating 
to  the  duties  of  their  respective  offices,"  we  see  no  reason  why  he  should  be  required  to  audit 
expenditures  of  any  Department.  Nevertheless,  under  present  laws,  he  is  obliged  to  approve  the 
expenditures  of  many  of  the  largest  Departments,  extending  into  millions  of  dollars  annually, 
thereby  robbing  him  of  much  time  which  should  be  his  for  deliberation  upon  executive  problems 
for  the  development,  prosperity  and  happiness  of  all  the  people  of  the  State. 

Wc  recommend  that  all  laws  requiring  the  Governor  to  approve  Departmental  expenditures 
be  amended,  and  that  he  be  relieved  from  all  such  duties,  which  properly  belong  to  the  fiscal 
officers  of  the  Commonwealth. 

THE  DEPARTMENT  OF  PUBLIC  INSTRUCTION 

The  Department  of  Public  Instruction,  because  it  moulds  the  minds  of  those  upon  whom 
the  futun.  of  this  Commonwealth  must  depend,  is  probably  the  most  important  in  the  State 
Government. 

The  General  Assembly  has  from  time  to  time  added  Bureaus,  Boards  and  Divisions  to  it, 
sometimes  without  regard  as  to  whether  or  not  there  was  an  overlapping  of  purpose. 

This  Department  should  be  afforded  every  facility  for  expansion  in  order  to  give  every 
child  the  advantages  of  the  best  possible  common  school  education.    We  feel  that  a  reorganiza 
tion  of  it  and  a  readjustment  of  salaries  commensurate  with  the  duties  and  responsibilities  imposed 
would  increase  its  possibilites. 

We.  therefore,  recommend: — 

1.  That  the  State  Board  of  Education  be  authorized  to  reorganize  the  Department  of 
Public  Instruction. 

2.  That  the  question  of  vocational  education  be  given  most  careful  consideration  by  the 
reorganizing  body,  and  that  it  be  raised  to  the  position  it  deserves  in  the  educational  work  of 
the  State. 

THE  PUBLIC  SERVICE  COMMISSION 

The  Public  Service  Commission  should  be  given  ample  time  to  formulate  comprehensive 
policies  to  secure  from  public  utilities  for  the  benefit  of  all  the  people  of  the  State  adequate  service 
at  reasonable  rates. 

A  study  of  this  Commission  indicates  that  a  sufficiently  large  appropriation  was  not  made 
at  the  last  session  of  the  General  Assembly  to  pay  for  the  services  and  expenses  necessary  to 
properly  perform  all  the  duties  imposed  upon  it. 

THE  STATE  HIGHWAY  DEPARTMENT 

The  present  State  Highway  Department  was  reorganized  under  the  Act  of  1911,  at  which 
time  the  State  took  over  for  improvement  and  maintenance  8,827  miles  of  highways.  The  session 
of  1913  added  approximately  1,200  miles  to  the  routes  indicated  in  the  Act  of  1911,  making  a 
total  of  about  10,000  miles  of  highway,  the  responsibility  for  the  improvement  and  maintenance 
of  which  was  imposed  upon  this  Department. 


8 

\ 

Accordingly  the  Department  was  organized,  comprehensive  surveys  were  undertaken,  and 
equipment  was  purchased,  with  the  idea  of  building  roads  under  a  bond  issue  of  $50,000,000.00, 
resolutions,  having  been  passed  by  the  1911  and  1913  sessions  of  the  General  Assembly  authorizing 
the  submission  of  a  constitutional  amendment  to  the  people  of  the  State.  This  proposed  bond  issue 
having  failed  of  ratification  at  the  November  election  in  1913,  the  work  of  the  Department  will 
be  interfered  with,  as  appropriations  in  the  future  will  necessarily  have  to  be  made  out  of  current 
revenues. 

Under  the  circumstances  this  Commission  feels  that  it  will  be  utterly  impossible  for  the 
State,  with  any  degree  of  efficiency,  to  improve  and  maintain  highways  other  than  those  which 
represent  the  main  or  trunk  lines.  The  responsibility  for  the  improvement  and  maintenance  of 
the  smaller  highways  should  be  imposed  upon  the  local  authorities. 

We.  therefore,  recommend : — 

That  the  General  Assembly  consider  promptly  the  question  or  re-routing  State  highways, 
in  order  that  the  duty  imposed  upon  the  State  may  be  in  accordance  with  anticipated  revenues : 

That  the  local  authorities  be  required  to  improve  and  maintain  the  highways  of  lesser 
importance ; 

That  sufficient  appropriations  be  made  for  the  completion  of  work  heretofore  started  by 
the  State  Highway  Department,  and  for  the  improvement  and  maintenance  of  the  re-routed  State 
highways  above  suggested. 

CONSERVATION 

As  was  pointed  out  in  the  introductory  pages  of  this  report  one  of  the  most  important 
things  aimed  at  in  investigating  the  organization  and  administration  of  the  various  Departments 
composing  the  State  Government  was  the  elimination  of  duplication  of  work  and  encroachment 
of  authority  A  tangible  example  of  such  a  state  of  affairs  is  presented  by  the  Forestry  Depart- 
ment, the  Department  of  Fisheries  and  the  Department  made  up  of  Game  Commissioners.  We 
feel  that  these  three  present  similarity,  both  in  the  need  of  their  creation  and  the  duties  prescribed 
and  discharged  by  each. 

To  conserve  and  protect  natural  resources  was  the  primary  reason  of  the  Legislature  creat- 
ing these  respective  Departments.  In  their  infancy  each  one  had  its  own  field  of  activity.  By 
steady  growth  and  numerous  additions  they  have  reached  such  proportions  that  we  feel  their 
duties  have  become  more  or  less  interchangeable  and  that  they  should  be  combined  under  one  head. 

The  Game  Wardens  should  be  of  assistance  to  the  Fish  Wardens,  and  the  Forest  Rangers 
should  be  helpful  to  both.  A  combination  of  these  three  forces  should  prove  beneficial  to  all. 
A  combination  of  the  protecting  forces  of  these  three  Departments  and  the  State  Police  would 
provide  upwards  of  500  men  constantly  on  duty.  A  distribution  of  duties  and  the  consequent 
elimination  of  duplication  should  prove  valuable  for  the  service  and  helpful  for  the  public.  Three 
forces  working  under  one  head  should  achieve  better  results  than  under  the  present  system. 

We,  therefore,  recommend  that  a  Department  to  be  called  the  Conservation  Department 
be  established,  with  a  Commissioner  at  $7,500.00  per  annum,  and  that  the  Department  of  Fish- 
eries, the  Forestry  Department  and  the  Game  Wardens  be  made  subdivisions  of  the  Conservation 
Department  with  a  Director  to  receive  $3,000.00  per  annum  at  the  head  of  each  division.  Until 
a  closer  study  can  be  made  after  consolidation  we  feel  that  the  present  forces  (with  the  exception 
of  such  recommendations  as  we  have  made  in  discussing  the  individual  Departments),  be  kept 
intact.  As  was  pointed  out  before,  the  Fish  and  Game  Divisions  need  but  very  little  office  force, 
while  the  Forestry  Department,  as  at  present  constituted,  has  in  our  estimation  a  sufficient  force 
to  handle  all  its  work. 

We  further  recommend  that  an  Advisory  Commission,  to  be  composed  of  one  recognized 
forester,  one  expert  fish  culturist  and  one  recognized  game  protectionist  be  appointed  in  an  ad- 
visory capacity  to  the  Conservation  Commissioner. 


FORESTRY 

'i  Ik.  Forestry  Department  consists  of  157  positions,  4  of  which  were  created  by  statute, 
152  by  appropriation,  and  one  by  contingent  fund.     The  annual  pay-roll  aggregates  $140,050.00. 

We  feel  that  a  Department  the  size  of  this  one  should  have  at  least  two  traveling  inspectors 
who  should  devote  all  their  time  to  inspecting  the  work  of  the  men  in  charge  of  the  State  forests. 
We  do  not  believe  that  instructions  such  as  these  men  need  can  be  given  by  correspondence,  nor 
do  we  feel  that  they  can  be  given  properly  by  any  except  experienced  foresters. 

One-  of  the  necessary  elements  of  protection  that  we  feel  should  be  added  to  the  forest 
service  is  the  immediate  erection  and  equipping  of  fire  towers  or  forest  look-outs.  We  believe  that 
money  expended  along  such  a  line  of  prevention  will  save  thousands  now  expended  for  fighting 
fires. 

We  recommend  that  the  force  of  foresters  be  increased  to  75,  and  that  each  forester  be 
provided  with  at  least  two  forest  rangers. 

On  account  of  the  dissimilarity  of  conditions  in  the  various  forest  reserves  it  is  impossible 
to  divide  the  entire  State  reservation  into  equal  tracts.  We  believe,  however,  that  a  well  wooded 
tract  under  the  direction  of  one  forester  should  not  exceed  25,000  acres.  In  cases  of  barren  hills 
such  an  area  could,  of  course,  be  larger  and  the  same  care  and  protection  afforded  it  by  a  small 
force. 

FISHERIES 

The  Department  of  Fisheries  consists  of  42  positions,  3  of  which  were  created  by  statute 
and  39  by  appropriation. 

The  office  force  of  this  Department  is,  by  reason  of  the  nature  of  its  business,  very  small. 
The  field  force  is  the  large  and  important  division.  We  feel  that  the  salaries  paid  the  Superin- 
tendent and  assistants  at  the  State  Hatcheries  are  inadequate.  Considering  the  demand  for  expert 
fish  culturists  we  feel  that  it  behooves  the  Commonwealth  to  provide  adequate  compensation  for 
these  officials  before  private  interests  entice  them  by  increased  salaries. 

In  view  of  the  recommendations  that  we  have  made  for  combining  the  Departments  of 
Fisheries-,  Forestry  and  Game  Wardens,  we  feel  that  the  present  force  of  ten  Wardens  supple- 
mented by  the  forces  doing  similar  work  in  the  other  two  Departments  is  sufficient. 

GAME 

The  Department  of  Game  Commissioners  consists  of  24  positions,  23  of  which  were  created 
by  statute  and  one  by  appropriation.    The  annual  pay  roll  aggregates  $23,760.00. 

The  duties  of  the  Game  Wardens  are  so  similar  to  those  of  the  Fish  Wardens  and  the 
Forest  Rangers  that  we  see  no  reason  for  increasing  their  number.  We  believe  that  the  com- 
bination of  these  three  forces  and  the  assistance  rendered  by  additional  State  Police  will  prove 
adequate  to  give  the  State  game  all  the  protection  it  needs.  Cooperation  between  these  branches 
of  the  State  Government  will  bring  about  greater  good  and  more  lasting  results  than  indiscrim- 
inate increasing  of  individual  forces.  We  feel  that  there  is  unnecessary  duplication  of  work  and 
overlapping  of  authority  by  continuing  these  forces  in  separate  fields,  and  that  their  immediate 
combination  or  consolidation  is  essential  for  the  good  of  the  public. 

THE  WATER  SUPPLY  COMMISSION 

The  Water  Supply  Commission  consists  of  five  members,  three  of  whom  receive  $3,000.00 
each  per  annum,  the  Commissioner  of  Health  and  the  Commissioner  of  Forestry,  neither  of  whom 
receives  compensation  for  this  service.  The  force  of  the  Commission  consists  of  71  positions, 
5  of  which  were  created  by  statute  and  66  by  appropriation.  The  annual  pay-roll  aggregates 
$110,180.00. 


10 

In  accordance  with  recommendations  contained  in  the  message  of  His  Excellency  the  Gov- 
ernor of  the  Commonwealth  to  the  last  session  of  the  General  Assembly,  comprehensive  legisla- 
tion was  enacted  to  prevent  such  catastrophies  as  those  at  Johnstown  and  Austin,  caused  by 
reason  of  the  failure  of  dams  impounding  large  quantities  of  water,  also  in  order  that  an  inventory 
of  the  water  resources  might  be  taken  to  determine  their  best  uses — imposing  upon  the  Commis- 
sion important  duties  and  responsibilities.  The  study  of  this  Commission  has  disclosed  the  fact 
that  because  of  this  legislation  and  increased  appropriations  the  Commission  has  accomplished 
more  during  the  years  1913-14  toward  the  conservation  and  equitable  distribution  of  the  waters 
of  the  State  and  the  regulation  of  obstructions  in,  along  and  across  the  various  water  courses  than 
during  the  entire  previous  history  of  its  existence. 

In  order  to  prevent  what  appears  to  be  duplication  of  work,  certain  duties  now  performed 
by  the  Water  Supply  Commission  relative  to  the  incorporation  of  water  and  water  power  com- 
panies, mergers  and  consolidations,  and  sales  of  property  and  franchises  should  be  transferred  to 
the  Public  Service  Commission,  and  the  Water  Supply  Commission  should  confine  its  activities 
to  the  improvement  of  stream  regulation,  including  the  supervision  over  obstructions  placed  in, 
along  and  across  streams  of  the  Commonwealth ;  the  maintenance  of  a  Hydrographic  Division ; 
the  completion  of  the  inventory  of  the  water  resources  of  the  State,  for  the  purpose  of  determin- 
ing their  best  uses  for  all  of  the  people,  and  the  completion  of  the  Pymatuning  Reservoir  Project. 

This  Commission,  therefore,  recommends : — 

That  the  functions  of  the  Water  Supply  Commission  of  Pennsylvania  be  confined  to  the 
inspection  of  existing  dams ;  that  no  dam  be  erected  in  the  future  for  the  impounding  or  storing 
of  water,  or  for  the  development  of  water  power,  without  first  making  application  to,  and  re- 
ceiving the  approval  of  said  Commission,  in  accordance  with  such  conditions  as  it  may  impose. 

The  improvement  of  stream  regulation,  including  the  supervision  over  all  obstructions 
placed  in,  along  or  across  the  streajms  of  the  State. 

The  completion  of  an  inventory  of  all  the  water  resources  of  the  State — authorized  by  the 
General  Assembly  of  1913. 

The  maintenance  of  a  Hydrographic  Division. 

The  completion  of  the  Pymatuning  Reservoir  Project,  for  the  storing  and  impounding  of 
waters,  in  order  to  improve  and  regulate  the  flows  of  the  Shenango  and  Beaver  Rivers. 


THE  WATER  WAYS 

The  Commonwealth  of  Pennsylvania  is  particularly  fortunate  in  having  natural  waterway 
outlets  at  the  eastern  and  western  ends  of  the  State.  The  Ohio  River  with  its  tributaries  pro- 
vides excellent  facilities  in  the  west,  while  the  Delaware  River  in  the  east  should  be  an  avenue 
of  commerce  of  which  the  entire  State  could  boast. 

Philadelphia  is  the  logical  outlet  for  a  great  export  and  the  natural  inlet  for  a  great  im- 
port trade.  In  fact,  even  the  coastwise  trade  to  and  from  Philadelphia  could  be  increased  three- 
fold if  local  conditions  were  improved.  Existing  conditions  should  receive  the  attention  not  only 
of  the  city  of  Philadelphia,  but  of  the  State  and  Federal  Governments. 

The  port  of  Philadelphia  is  in  need  of  improved  terminal  facilities ;  more  wharves  and 
docks ;  a  deeper  river  and  closer  co-operation  between  shipping  and  railroad  interests. 

A  study  of  the  revenue  derived  from  the  port  of  Philadelphia  by  the  Federal  Government 
and  a  comparison  of  the  same  with  the  money  expended  by  the  Federal  Government  for  improv- 
ments  along  the  Delaware  River  is  very  interesting.  In  value  of  imports  and  exports  of  mer- 
chandise at  Philadelphia  during  the  year  1913,  the  city  stood  fifth  in  the  list  of  Atlantic  and  Gulf 
ports.  In  tonnage  it  ranked  second.  The  Custom  duties  collected  that  year  at  the  port  of  Phila- 
delphia totaled  $18,000,875.00. 


11 

For  improving  and  maintaining  the  harbor  of  Philadelphia  between  1890  and  1914  the 
combined  city,  state  and  Federal  appropriations  totaled  $17,000,293.00.  Between  1836  and  1913 
the  appropriations  for  improving  the  Delaware  River  from  Philadelphia  to  the  sea,  approximately 
90  miles,  aggregated  $17,000,523. 

The  Custom  duties  collected  at  this  port  during  the  year  1913  surpassed  the  entire  amount 
appropriated  by  the  United  States  Government  for  improving  the  Delaware  River  and  Phila- 
delphia Harbor  during  the  preceding  three  quarters  of  a  century. 

Below  Philadelphia  the  Delaware  River  has  been  improved  to  a  depth  of  30  feet  at  low 
water  and  is  now  being  deepened  to  a  depth  of  35  feet  at  mean  low  water.  It  has  a  width  of  800 
to  1,200  feet.  The  city  of  Philadelphia  is  making  minor  improvements  along  the  river  front.  The 
State  of  Pennsylvania  has  been  very  generous  in  dealing  with  the  city  and  its  river  problems. 
We  feel,  however,  that  the  day  is  at  hand  when  the  State  must  take  the  lead  and  improve  her 
natural  water  courses  in  every  particular. 

We  recommend  that  the  State  build  wharves  and  warehouses  provided  with  the  best  me- 
chanical trans-shipping  equipment ;  that  she  take  steps  for  the  completion  and  improvement  of 
the  belt  line  railway  and  its  connections  with  wharves,  warehouses  and  railroads ;  that  she  main- 
tain wharves  for  transient  or  independent  vessels ;  that  she  build  a  dry  dock  to  accommodate 
ocean  steamers  of  the  largest  type ;  that  she  keep  the  docks  dredged  and  that  she  provide  deeper 
channels  in  the  Delaware  and  Schuylkill  Rivers.  If  the  initial  steps  for  elaborate  improvements 
are  taken  at  this  time,  Philadelphia,  with  its  natural  advantages,  will  be  restored  to  the  position 
of  commercial  supremacy  that  she  once  occupied. 

The  opening  of  the  Panama  Canal  will  stimulate  sea  coast  commercial  activity.  The  ton- 
nage on  the  Allegheny  and  Monongahela  Rivers  is  steadily  increasing.  The  handicaps  to  naviga- 
tion in  these  channels  are  numerous.  Their  advantages  as  natural  outlets  for  commerce  are  too 
great  in  number  to  be  ignored.  The  improvement  by  the  State  of  these  natural  advantages  will 
enure  to  the  benefit  of  all  her  people. 

We,  therefore,  recommend  liberal  appropriations  for  the  improvement  of  the  waterways  in 
the  east,  and  the  inauguration  of  a  comprehensive  system  that  will  increase  the  facilities  in  the 
west. 


THE  TOPOGRAPHIC  AND  GEOLOGIC  SURVEY  COMMISSION 

• 

From  a  strictly  economic  point  of  view  the  importance  of  geologic  work  in  the  State  should 
be  proportionate  with  the  mineral  wealth,  and  the  necessity  for  immediate  work  is  indicated  by 
the  rate  at  which  these  resources  are  being  exhausted.  Compared  with  other  states  Pennsyl- 
vania occupies  a  position  peculiarly  its  own  as  a  mineral  producer.  In  1913  the  total  value  of 
the  mineral  production  of  the  State,  excluding  pig  iron,  coke  and  derived  products,  was  $500,- 
923,377.00,  almost  four  times  that  of  West  Virginia  or  Illinois,  the  second  and  third  states  in 
order  of  production.     This  output  is  almost  one-fourth  that  of  the  entire  United  States. 

In  1913  Pennsylvania  produced  over  173,000,000  tons  of  bituminous  coal,  about  700,000 
tons  each  working  day,  equivalent  to  the  exhaustion  of  35,000  acres.  It  needs  no  prophet  to  see 
the  rapid  exhaustion  of  our  best  fuels.  The  end  of  the  great  Pittsburgh  bed  of  coal,  which  has 
been  called  the  most  valuable  mineral  deposit  in  the  United  States,  will  be  seen,  experts  predict, 
by  a  large  portion  of  the  present  generation. 

Pennsylvania  owes  its  preeminent  position  as  a  mineral  producer  to  its  coal,  but  if  all  the 
coal  production  is  disregarded,  our  own  State  will  still  continue  the  leading  mineral  producer, 
exceeding  California  in  1913  by  over  $12,000,000.00. 

Of  the  fourteen  leading  metals,  fuels  and  structural  materials,  with  a  value  of  two-thirds 
of  the  total  mineral  output  of  the  United  States,  Pennsylvania  leads  in  seven,  and  is  second  in 
one.     Of  the  remaining  six,  petroleum  is  the  only  mineral  we  produce. 


12 

The  average  mineral  production  per  square  mile  of  area  in  the  United  States  in  1912  was 
$530.00,  while  that  of  Pennsylvania  was  $9,981.00  (in  1913  it  was  $11,100.00),  nineteen  times  the 
average  and  almost  twice  that  of  West  Virginia,  the  second  state  on  a  basis  of  unit  production. 

The  above  facts  not  only  serve  to  indicate  the  enormous  quantity  and  value  of  the  Pennsyl- 
vania minerals,  but  they  equally  show  how  fast  this  mineral  wealth  is  being  drawn  upon  and 
emphasize  the  increasing  importance  of  careful  study  which  will  lead  to  true  conservation. 

Comparing  the  aid  and  assistance  Pennsylvania  and  its  adjoining  States  are  giving  toward 
the  development  and  encouragement  of  the  mineral  industry,  Pennsylvania  falls  far  behind.  The 
total  appropriation  for  the  current  year  for  both  topographic  and  geologic  work  is  but  $15,000.00, 
which  is  $0.33  per  square  mile,  while  in  Ohio  the  appropriation  is  $0.78,  in  Maryland  $1.22,  in 
West  Virginia  $1.24,  and  in  New  Jersey  $2.00  per  square  mile  of  area. 

Comparing  the  several  appropriations  with  the  total  mineral  production  we  find  the  amount 
appropriated  for  each  $1,000  of  output  in  New  York  is  $3.35,  in  Maryland  $1.37,  in  New  Jersey 
$0.45,  in  Ohio  $0.29,  in  West  Virginia  $0.24  and  in  Pennsylvania  but  $0.03. 

The  above  comparisons  show  that  while  Pennsylvania  stands  at  the  top  of  the  list  as 
regards  total  mineral  production,  when  compared  with  our  neighboring  states  it  stands  at  the 
bottom  of  the  list  as  regards  any  attempt  to  maintain  this  ranking  position.  Our  expenditures  for 
the  encouragement  of  our  mining  industries  are  but  1/8  as  much  as  West  Virginia,  1/9  as  much 
as  Ohio,  1/4  as  much  as  New  Jersey,  1/40  as  much  as  Maryland,  and  but  one  per  cent,  of  the 
amount  expended  by  New  York. 

The  importance  of  the  completion  of  the  topographic  map  of  the  State  needs  no  argument. 
Slightly  more  than  one-half  of  the  State  has  been  mapped.  Under  the  provisions  of  the  contract 
with  the  United  States  Geologic  Survey  that  body  pays  one-half  of  the  field  and  office  expenses 
of  this  work  and  the  entire  cost  of  engraving  the  finished  maps. 

The  present  Topographic  and  Geologic  Survey  Commission  of  Pennsylvania  was  created 
in  1909,  and  since  that  time  has  received  $80,000.00  in  appropriations.  With  these  limited  funds 
we  feel  that  the  Commission  has  made  substantial  progress. 

We.  therefore,  recommend: — 

That  the  present  system  of  compensating  the  President  of  the  Commission  for  perfunctory 
services  be  discontinued; 

That  the  headquarters  of  this  Commission  be  moved  to  Harrisburg; 

That  the  General  Assembly  make  a  substantial  appropriation  in  order  to  complete  the 
topographic  map  of  the  State  and  to  further  the  geologic  work. 


A  PUBLICITY  BUREAU 

Pennsylvania  should  adopt  more  aggressive  methods  for  keeping  the  public  advised  of 
her  growth  and  development,  her  natural  resources,  her  industrial  prowess,  her  commercial 
strength,  her  geographical  and  climatic  advantages,  her  agricultural  superiority,  her  conserva- 
tion policies,  the  accomplishments  of  her  people  and  the  protection  afforded  by  her  laws. 

Every  Department  in  the  State  Government  is  doing  something  of  interest  and  benefit 
to  the  entire  population  of  the  State.  It  does  not  become  a  Commonwealth  as  great  as  Pennsyl- 
vania to  forge  steadily  ahead  in  silence.  We  do  not  approve  of  carefully  planned  publicity  cam- 
paigns, nor  do  we  feel  that  she  should  resort  to  the  every-day  methods  of  commercial  advertising. 
We  are  convinced,  however,  that  Pennsylvania  should  give  the  public  complete  and  timely  infor- 
mation concerning  things  being  done  and  accomplishments  daily  achieved  within  her  borders. 

The  industrial  activities  and  occupations  peculiar  to  Pennsylvania  provide  in  themselves 
a  subject  of  world  wide  interest.  The  attention  given  the  public  schools  and  their  development 
stands  out  conspicuously.     This  Commonwealth  annually  appropriates  more  for  the  support  of 


13 

her  educational  institutions  than  half  the  States  of  the  Union  enjoy  as  their  entire  revenues. 
Her  mining  production  equals  approximately  fifty  per  cent,  of  the  output  of  the  United  States. 
Her  charities  are  better  cared  for  than  elsewhere.  Her  legislation  has  been  more  progressive  on 
sane  lines  than  that  of  any  other  State.  She  is  free  of  debt  and  does  not  collect  one  penny  of 
land  tax. 

The  Commonwealth  of  Pennsylvania  is  and  always  should  be  the  leader  in  everything  that 
is  for  the  best  interests  of  all  her  people.  For  that  reason  we  recommend  a  Bureau  of  Publicity ; 
one  that  could  keep  continually  before  the  public  what  Pennsylvania  is  accomplishing,  not  only 
in  her  official  or  public  capacity,  but  also  in  the  private  fields  of  commercial  and  industrial  activity. 

PUBLIC  GROUNDS  AND  BUILDINGS 

This  Commission  after  careful  study  and  consideration  is  convinced  that  the  present  system 
of  purchasing  supplies,  under  direction  of  the  Board  of  Commissioners  of  Public  Grounds  and 
Buildings,  and  the  erection  of  buildings  and  additions  to  existing  and  new  State  Institutions, 
under  the  direction  of  numerous  and  temporary  Commissions  created  from  time  to  time  by  the 
General  Assembly,  should  be  discontinued ;  and  that  these  functions  should  be  performed  by 
a  State  Board  of  Public  Property,  to  consist  of  three  members,  who  should  be  required  to  devote 
their  entire  time  and  attention  to  the  duties  of  the  Board,  one  of  whom  should  be  appointed  by 
the  Governor,  one  by  the  Auditor  General  and  one  by  the  State  Treasurer. 

The  approval  of  all  supply  contracts  by  the  Governor,  the  Auditor  General  and  the  State 
Treasurer  is  required  by  Section  12  of  Article  III  of  the  Constitution.  It  is  a  safeguard  for  the 
public,  and  this  Commission  is  in  entire  accord  with  this  provision. 

The  Board  of  Commssioners  of  Public  Grounds  and  Buildings  is  composed  of  the  Governor, 
the  Auditor  General  and  the  State  Treasurer.  This  Board  has  "entire  control  and  supervision  of 
the  public  grounds  and  buildings,  including  the  Executive  Mansion,  and  all  the  repairs,  altera- 
tions and  improvements  made  and  all  work  done,  or  expenses  incurred  in  and  about  such  grounds 
and  buildings,  including  the  furnishing  and  refurnishing  of  the  same,  and  are  authorized  to  enter 
into  contracts  for  stationery,  supplies,  furniture,  fuel,  repairs,  alterations  or  improvements  and 
other  matters  needed  by  the  Legislature,  the  several  Departments,  Boards  and  Commissions  of 
the  State  Government  and  Executive  Mansion."  The  Board  employs  a  Superintendent  of  Public 
Grounds  and  Buildings,  and  has  172  employees  whose  annual  salaries  aggregate  $173,560.00. 

At  present  Commissions  are  at  work  considering  the  erection  of  a  Pennsylvania  Home  for 
Inebriates,  a  Village  for  Feeble  Minded  Women,  and  an  Industrial  Home  for  Women.  The  Feeble 
Minded  and  Epileptic  Institutions  at  Spring  City  and  Polk  are  making  extensive  additions  and 
considerable  public  money  is  being  expended  in  the  constructon  of  a  new  Western  Penitentiary 
in  Centre  County. 

It  is  our  opinion  that  all  planning  and  building  of  State  Institutions  should  be  centralized 
in  one  body,  as  the  employment  of  individual  architects  and  other  experts  by  each  building  Com- 
mission has  developed  into  an  expensive  luxury. 

When  the  Board  of  Commissioners  of  Public  Grounds  and  Buildings  was  created  the  supply 
needs  of  the  various  Departments  were  slight.  These  have  increased  continually  until  this  ques- 
tion is  probably  the  most  important  one  now  imposed  upon  the  Public  Grounds  and  Buildings 
Commission.  Section  12  of  Article  III  of  the  Constitution  provides :  "All  stationery,  printing, 
paper  and  fuel  used  in  the  legislative  and  other  departments  of  government  shall  be  furnished, 
and  the  printing,  binding  and  distributing  of  the  laws,  journals,  department  reports,  and  all  other 
printing  and  binding,  and  the  repairing  and  furnishing  the  halls  and  rooms  used  for  the  meetings 
of  the  General  Assembly  and  its  committees,  SHALL  BE  PERFORMED  UNDER  CONTRACT 
to  be  given  to  the  lowest  responsible  bidder  below  such  maximum  price  and  under  such  regulations 
as  shall  be  prescribed  by  law."  The  detail  incident  to  preparing  schedules,  receiving  bids,  awarding 


14 

contracts  and  purchasing  supplies  under  them  has  become  enormous.  The  members  of  the  Board 
of  Public  Grounds  and  Buildings,  by  reason  of  their  other  important  duties,  are  unable  to  give  the 
matter  of  supplies  the  time  and  close  attention  it  deserves.  Therefore  this  responsibility  is  dele- 
gated almost  entirely  to  the  Superintendent  of  Public  Grounds  and  Buildings. 

The  supplies  furnished  State  Institutions  have  also  received  consideration.  Their  wants 
are  identical,  but  the  prices  entirely  different.  In  the  matter  of  food  stuffs  the  location  naturally 
affects  some  Institutions.  In  the  matter  of  staple  supplies  location  should  have  no  influence. 
If  a  central  body  purchased  these  supplies  it  is  our  opinion  that  the  appropriations  to  these  In- 
stitutions could  be  more  economically  handled.  A  central  body  could  also  be  used  as  a  clearing 
house  for  the  products  of  State  Institutions.  Those  that  provide  more  food,  livestock  and  work- 
shop products  than  they  require  for  their  own  needs  could  send  them  to  another  State  Institution 
not  so  productive.  This  applies  particularly  to  the  new  Western  Penitentiary  with  its  5,000  fertile 
acres  and  its  contemplated  elaborate  work  shops. 

We,  therefore,  recommend : — 

That  a  Board  of  Public  Property  be  created; 

That  the  duties  now  imposed  upon  the  Board  of  Commissioners  of  Public  Grounds  and 
Buildings  be  transferred  to  this  Board  of  Public  Property ; 

That  the  Board  of  Public  Property  be  given  supervision  over  the  planning  and  erection  of 
all  State  Institutions ; 

That  the  purchasing  of  supplies  for  all  State  Departments  be  imposed  upon  this  Board 
of  Public  Property,  and  that  the  purchasing  of  supplies  by  the  various  Departmepts  be  discon- 
tinued ; 

That  this  Board  be  required  to  study  the  supply,  furniture  and  equipment  wants  of  the) 
various  State  Institutions  as  well  as  their  products  in  order  to  determine  whether  or  not  their 
purchase  and  distribution  could  be  made  more  advantageously  and  more  economically  through 
such  a  centralized  Board,  and  report  the  result  of  such  study  to  the  General  Assembly ; 

That  all  contracts  entered  into  by  this  Board  in  the  matter  of  supplies  or  buildings  be  in- 
valid until  ratified  by  the  Governor,  the  Auditor  General  and  the  State  Treasurer. 

The  Commission  has  grave  doubt  as  to  the  propriety  of  continuing  the  present  system  of 
requiring  the  Commonwealth  to  replace  bridges  destroyed  by  flood,  fire  or  other  casualty  as  it 
seems  to  be  more  in  the  interest  of  bridge  building  companies  than  the  State. 


A  MULTIGRAPHING  AND  ADDRESSING  DIVISION 

If  all  the  mechanical  apparatus  now  distributed  through  the  various  Departments  were 
assembled  in  one  division  and  put  at  the  service  of  one  force  for  use  by  all  departments,  we  feel 
confident  that  the  State  as  a  whole  would  get  much  better  results  than  from  the  present  un- 
systematic arrangement. 

For  instance,  there  are  fifteen  multigraphing  and  two  printing  machines  scattered  through 
the  various  Departments.  There  are  eleven  addressing  machines  and  one  graphotype  or  plate- 
making  equipment.  The  cost  of  this  entire  equipment  amounts  to  many  thousand  dollars.  The 
statistics  compiled  by  this  Commission  show  that  the  140,000  forms  produced  by  all  these  machines 
in  a  month  is  far  below  the  maximum  output  of  such  an  elaborate  equipment. 

We,  therefore,  recommend : — 

1.  That  all  multigraphing  and  addressing  equipment  be  centralized  in  one  Division. 

2.  That  a  force  of  three  experts  be  provided  to  handle  the  multigraphing  and  three  to 
handle  the  addressing  equipment. 

3.  That  this  division  for  multigraphing  and  addressing  be  made  a  part  of  the  State  Board 
of  Property  recommended  in  another  chapter.

THE  AUDITOR  GENERAL'S  DEPARTMENT 

The  Auditor  General's  Department  consists  of  76  positions,  72  of  which  were  created  by 
Statute  and  4  by  the  Contingent  Fund.     The  annual  pay  roll  aggregates  $141,810.00. 

The  Auditor  General's  office  was  created  by  the  Act  of  March  17,  1809,  P.  L.  71,  and 
succeeded  the  Comptroller  General  and  Register  General  created  respectively  by  the  Act  of  April 
13,  1782,  and  the  Act  of  March  28,  1789.  The  creating  Act  provided  in  part  "From  and  after1 
the  first  of  May  next  there  shall  be  appointed  an  officer  to  be  called  the  Auditor  General,  who 
shall  be  invested  with  all  the  powers  now  possessed  by  the  Register  General,  and  shall  perform 
all  the  duties,  etc."  The  Comptroller  General  was  authorized  and  empowered  "to  liquidate  and 
settle,  according  to  law  and  equity,  all  claims  against  the  Commonwealth,  . .  . ,  . . . ,  for  any  pur- 
pose whatever."  A  later  Act,  approved  April  4,  1792,  provided  "All  public  accounts  shall  be 
submitted  to,  and  in  the  first  instance  examined,  liquidated  and  adjusted  by  the  Register  General ; 
and  the  Register  General  shall,  after  liquidation  and  adjustment  of  every  such  account,  transmit 
the  same, ,  to  the  Comptroller  General." 

This  dual  arrangement  of  auditing  the  public  accounts  by  the  Register  General  and  the 
Comptroller  General  has  been  continued  by  the  Acts  creating  and  regulating  the  Auditor  General 
and  now  vests  that  authority  in  the  Auditor  General  and  State  Treasurer.  Section  3  of  an  Act 
approved  March  30,  1811,  provides  "That  when  any  public  account  is  examined  and  adjusted, 
entered  in  the  books  of  the  office  and  signed  by  the  Auditor  General,  it  shall  be  submitted,  . . . , 
. . . ,  to  the  State  Treasurer  for  his  revision  and  approbation."  At  the  same  time  Section  5  of  this 
Act  provides  that  the  State  Treasurer  shall  return  such  public  accounts  submitted  to  him  with 
his  approval  or  disapproval,  and  in  the  event  of  these  two  officers  failing  to  agree  the  said  account 
shall  be  submitted  to  the  Governor,  whose  decision  shall  be  conclusive  as  to  the  said  officers. 
It  has  not  been  necessary  to  submit  such  accounts  to  the  Chief  Executive  on  many  occasions,  but 
it  appears  to  be  a  wise  precaution  on  the  part  of  the  framers  of  the  Act. 

In  addition  to  the  auditing  duties  imposed  upon  the  Auditor  General  and  the  State  Treasurer 
by  various  Acts  of  the  General  Assembly  they  have  also  been  invested  with  the  authority  to 
assess  and  collect  taxes.  The  corporate  taxes  collected  by  this  State  comprise  sixty  per  cent,  of  the 
State's  revenue.  The  centralizing  of  these  assessing,  collecting  and  auditing  duties  in  the  Auditor 
General  and  State  Treasurer  places  them  in  the  anomalous  position  of  assessing  and  collecting 
States  revenues,  disbursing  them  and  then  auditing  the  assessments  and  disbursements  made  and 
authorized  by  themselves.  Centralization  of  authority  and  responsibility  seems  to  have  been 
carried  to  extremes  in  this  matter 

Bouvier's  Law  Dictionary  defines  "Auditor" :  "An  officer  of  the  government  whose  duty 
it  is  to  examine  the  accounts  of  officers  who  have  received  and  disbursed  public  moneys  by  law- 
ful authority." 

Black's  Law  Dictionary  defines  "Auditor" :  "A  public  officer  whose  function  it  is  to  examine 
and  pass  upon  the  accounts  and  vouchers  of  officers  who  have  received  and  expended  public 
moneys  by  lawful  authority." 

Webster's  Dictionary  defines  "Auditor":  "A  person  appointed  and  authorized  to  audit 
and  examine  an  account  (or  accounts),  compare  charges  with  vouchers,  examine  parties  and  wit- 
nesses, allow  or  reject  charges  and  state  the  balance." 

When  these  authorative  definitions  are  compared  with  the  duties  imposed  upon  and  dis- 
charged by  the  Auditor  General  it  is  sufficient  proof  to  justify  a  redistribution  of  duties. 

When  the  vast  amount  of  work  entailed  by  the  discharge  of  these  duties  is  considered  it  is 
apparent  that  no  man  can  discharge  them  with  the  highest  efficiency. 

We,  therefore,  recommend : — 

That  a  Commission  be  created  to  be  known  as  the  State  Tax  Commission,  composed  of 
three  persons,  one  to  be  appointed  by  the  Governor,  one  by  the  Auditor  General  and  one  by  the 
State  Treasurer. 


16 

That  the  assessing  and  collecting  of  all  State  taxes  be  transferred  from  the  Auditor  General 
and  State  Treasurer  to  the  Tax  Commission. 

That  for  the  better  auditing  of  the  accounts  of  Institutions  receiving  State  money  the  force 
of  traveling  auditors  in  the  Auditor  General's  Department  be  increased. 

THE  ATTORNEY  GENERAL'S  DEPARTMENT 

The  Attorney  General's  Department  consists  of  11  positions,  whose  salaries  aggregate 
$36,250.00  per  annum.  As  at  present  constituted,  with  its  limited  force,  the  Department  has  dis- 
charged its  duties  efficiently  and  creditably.  Few  Attorneys  General  have  had  more  important 
legislation  to  pass  upon  than  has  the  present  incumbent  of  that  office,  and  he  has  acquitted  himself 
with  credit  and  distinction. 

On  acount  of  the  limited  force  in  this  Department  and  the  growing  needs  of  the  other  De- 
partments the  practice  of  employing  individual  counsel  for  certain  Departments  has  come  into 
use.  This  Commission  disapproves  of  this  system.  It  is  both  expensive  and  unsatisfactory. 
The  legal  forces  of  this  Commonwealth  should  be  centralized  in  one  Department,  under  one  head. 
The  outside  service  has  cost  as  much  during  the  past  year  as  has  the  entire  Attorney  General's' 
Department.     In  past  years  the  collection  of  delinquent  taxes  has  cost  vast  sums  of  money. 

We,  therefore,  recommend  that  a  Department  of  Justice  similar  to  that  operated  success- 
fully by  the  Federal  Government  be  created  by  legislative  enactment  to  take  the  place  of  the 
present  Attorney  General's  Department  and  to  provide  all  legal  services  for  all  Departments  com- 
prising the  State  Government. 

We  recommend  the  following  force  for  the  proposed  Department:— 

1  Attorney  General, $12,000  00  per  annum. 

1  Solicitor  General, 7,500  00  per  annum. 

.  5  Deputies,  , 5,000  00  each  per  annum. 

5  Assistant  Deputies, 3,000  00  each  per  annum. 

,...         5  Stenographers, 1,200  00  each  per  annum. 

3  Law  Clerks, 2,400  00  each  per  annum. 

1  General  Clerk, 1,800  00  per  annum. 

1  Messenger,    1,200  00  per  annum. - 

In  recommending  that  the  Attorney  General's  Department  be  changed  into  a  Department 
of  Justice  we  have  not  lost  sight  of  Section  8,  Article  IV,  of  the  Constitution,  which  provides : 
"He  (the  Governor)  shall  nominate  and  by  and  with  the  advice  and  consent  of  two-thirds  of  all 
the  members  of  the  Senate  appoint  . . . ,   . . . ,   . . . ,  an  Attorney  General  during  pleasure." 

By  changing  the  Attorney  General's  Department  to  a  Department  of  Justice  with  an  Attor- 
ney General  at  the  head  of  it,  subject  to  appointment  by  the  Governor,  such  legislation  would 
not  be  in  conflict  with  the  Constitution. 

THE  REVENUE  AND  FINANCE  BOARD 

One  of  the  defects  in  the  organization  of  a  State  Government  is  the  creation  from  time  to 
time  of  different  Boards  to  transact  similar  business.  There  are,  for  instance,  at  the  present  time 
four  Boards  or  Commissions  with  separate  and  distinct  memberships  dealing  with  questions  affect- 
ing the  finances  and  revenues  of  this  State.  They  are  the  Board  to  License  Private  Bankers,  the 
Board  of  Public  Accounts,  the  Board  of  Revenue  Commissioners  and  the  Sinking  Fund  Com- 
mission. 

The  Board  to  License  Private  Bankers  consists  of  the  Banking  Commissioner,  the  State 
Treasurer  and  the  Secretary  of  the  Commonwealth. 


17 

The  Board  of  Public  Accounts  consists  of  the  Auditor  General,  the  State  Treasurer,  the 
Attorney  General  and  a  clerk  who  receives  $500.00  a  year. 

The  Board  of  Revenue  Commissioners  consists  of  the  Auditor  General,  the  State  Treasurer 
and  the  Secretary  of  the  Commonwealth,  who  receive  $300.00  each  per  annum,  and  one  clerk  who 
receives  $1,000.00  per  annum. 

The  Sinking  Fund  Commission  consists  of  the  Auditor  General,  the  State  Treasurer  and 
the  Secretary  of  the  Commonwealth,  who  receive  $300.00  each  per  annum,  and  one  clerk  who 
receives  $1,000.00  per  annum. 

We,  therefore,  recommend  that  legislation  be  enacted  consolidating  these  four  Boards  into 
one,  to  be  called  the  Revenue  and  Finance  Board,  and  to  consist  of  the  Auditor  General,  the  State 
Treasurer,  the  Commissioner  of  Banking  and  the  Attorney  General ;  and  that  they  be  given  the 
entire  services  of  one  clerk  at  $1,800.00  per  annum. 

THE  DEPARTMENT  OF  PUBLIC  PRINTING  AND  BINDING 

The  Department  of  Public  Printing  and  Binding  consists  of  14  positions,  7  of  which  were 
created  by  Statute,  3  by  Appropriation  and  4  by  the  Contingent  Fund.  The  annual  pay  roll 
aggregates  $18,300.00. 

The  Superintendent  of  Public  Printing  and  Binding  must  possess  a  thorough  knowledge 
of  printing,  binding,  engraving,  embossing  and  the  other  branches  of  printing,  as  well  as  a  general 
knowledge  of  the  composition  of  papers. 

We,  therefore,  recommend  that  the  salary  of  the  Superintendent  of  Public  Printing  and 
Binding  be  increased  from  $3,000.00  to  $5,000.00  per  annum. 

Under  the  provisions  of  Article  3  of  Section  XII  of  the  Constitution  all  printing  and  binding 
for  the  State  must  be  done  under  contract.  The  length  of  this  contract  has  been  fixed  by  statu- 
tory enactment  at  four  years.  The  vast  amount  of  work  required  by  the  Commonwealth  demands 
an  expensive  and  complete  equipment.  The  cost  of  this  is  so  great  that  in  the  past  few  con- 
tractors have  been  able  to  meet  the  demand,  and  as  a  result  the  State's  work  has  been  greatly 
hampered.  The  needs  of  the  Commonwealth  in  this  direction  are  steadily  increasing,  and  unless 
the  Constitution  is  amended  and  the  State  establish  its  own  printing  plant,  we  believe  that  the  only 
solution  is  an  extension  of  the  contract  period. 

We,  therefore,  recommend  that  hereafter  all  contracts  for  printing  and  binding  be  made 
for  six  instead  of  four  years,  so  that  successful  contractors  will  be  justified  in  furnishing  equip- 
ment necessary  to  do  the  State's  work. 

We  further  recommend  that  legislation  be  enacted  giving  the  Superintendent  of  Public 
Printing  and  Binding  direct  supervision  over  the  printing  and  binding  furnished  for  all  State 
Institutions. 

In  another  chapter  we  have  recommended  that  the  Superintendent  be  given  additional 
authority  in  the  matter  of  forms  and  letter  heads  for  the  Departments. 

DEPARTMENTAL  REPORTS 

The  annual  reports  published  by  the  different  Departments  are  for  the  purpose  of  informing 
the  public,  and  for  assisting  the  members  of  the  General  Assembly  in  determining  the  necessity 
for  certain  legislation. 

The  cost  of  printing  and  distributing  these  reports  is  out  of  all  proportion  to  the  value 
and  importance  of  the  information  contained  in  them. 

In  view  of  the  fact  that  under  the  present  Constitution  the  Legislature  meets  biennially 
there  does  not  appear  to  be  any  good  reason  why  the  cost  of  their  issuance  should  not  be  reduced 
fifty  per  cent. 

We,  therefore,  recommend  that  legislation  be  enacted  requiring  the  various  Departments 
to  issue  bi-annual  instead  of  annual  reports  with  June  1st  as  the  beginning  of  the  bi-annual  period. 


18 

FORMS  AND  LETTERHEADS 

The  nature  of  the  business  transacted  by  many  Departments  in  the  State  Government  makes 
it  necessary  to  adopt  numerous  forms.  It  has  become  the  practice  to  print  conspicuously  on 
each  one  the  name  of  the  head  of  the  Department.  Frequent  changes  in  elective  and  appointive 
positions  have  caused  thousands  of  these  forms  to  be  wasted  annually. 

We,  therefore,  recommend  that  in  all  such  cases  the  printing  of  officials'  names  on  forms 
be  discontinued.     The  title  of  the  office  is  all  that  is  necessary. 

The  dissimilarity  of  paper  used  for  letterheads  in  the  various  Departments  is  also  worthy 
of  mention.  As  the  present  law  does  not  give  the  Superintendent  of  Printing  sufficient  authority, 
we  recommend  that  legislation  be  enacted  authorizing  him  to  standardize  the  paper  used  for  all 
letterheads  and  forms. 

We  also  recommend  that  legislation  be  enacted  giving  the  Superintendent  of  Public  Print- 
ing and  Binding  supervision  over  the  printing  and  binding  furnished  State  Institutions. 

THE  DEPARTMENT  OF  HEALTH 

The  Department  of  Health  was  created  by  an  Act  of  the  General  Assembly  of  1905. 

The  laws  of  Pennsylvania  impose  grave  duties  upon  the  Department  and  the  Commissioner 
in  preserving  the  purity  of  waters  of  the  State,  protecting  the  public  health,  suppressing  epidemics 
of  disease  and  in  caring  for  indigent  persons  suffering  from  tuberculosis.  In  order  to  best  meet 
these  requirements,  the  Department  has  been  organized  in  eight  divisions,  each  having  its  peculiar 
duties  to  perform,  each  at  the  same  time  working  in  conjunction  with  the  other  divisions  in  the 
varying  health  problems  which  are  constantly  arising  in  a  great  Commonwealth. 

The  followng  divisions  comprise  the  Health  Department :  The  Medical  Division,  com- 
posed of  an  office  force  of  twenty  and  a  field  force  of  sixty-six  County  Medical  Inspectors  (and 
six  hundred  and  eighty-two  Health  Officers ;  the  Division  of  Laboratories  and  Experimental  Sta- 
tion, with  an  office  force  of  thirteen,  bacteriologists,  assistants,  stenographers,  clerks  and  helpers ; 
the  Division  of  Distribution  of  Biological  Products,  composed  of  a  chief,  two  stenographers,  two 
clerks  and  six  hundred  and  sixty-seven  distributors, — druggists  in  the  various  towns  in  the  State 
who  serve  without  compensation ;  the  Division  of  Vital  Statistics,  under  the  State  Registrar,  with 
an  office  force  of  twenty-seven  clerks  and  stenographers,  and  twelve  hundred  and  fifty-six  regis- 
trars and  sub-registrars  in  the  various  registration  districts  of  the  State,  paid  by  the  counties  or 
by  special  legislative  appropriation ;  the  Division  of  Sanitary  Engineering,  composed  of  forty-two 
engineers,  assistants,  draftsmen,  stenographers  and  clerks,  and  fifty-nine  inspectors ;  the  Division 
of  Accounting  and  Purchasing,  with  a  chief  and  twenty-four  bookkeepers,  stenographers  and 
clerks ;  the  Division  of  Supplies,  composed  of  a  superintendent,  a  stenographer  and  three  clerks ; 
and  the  Division  of  Dispensaries  and  Sanatoria,  employing  an  office  force  of  ten,  physicians, 
nurses  and  clerks.  It  has  one  hundred  and  ninety-seven  physicians  working  in  its  one  hundred 
and  fifteen  dispensaries  and  twenty  nurses  attending  dispensary  patients  and  doing  sociological 
work.  The  Sanatoria  at  Mont  Alto,  Cresson  and  Hamburg  employ  twenty-four  physicians, 
seventy-four  nurses  and  four  hundred  and  seventy-seven  other  help. 

In  addition  to  these  several  divisions,  the  Commissioner  has  an  Assistant,  a  Secretary,  a 
General  Inspector,  an  Auditor,  two  stenographers,  night  clerk,  messenger  and  janitor,  whose 
work  extends  to  all  of  the  several  divisions. 

An  additional  division,  to  be  known  as  the  Bureau  of  Housing,  authorized  by  an  Act  of 
1913,  is  about  to  be  established  by  the  Commissioner  of  Health.  It  was  not  possible  to  start  the 
work  of  this  division  earlier  owing  to  the  fact  that  no  appropriation  for  such  purposes  had  been 
made  by  the  Legislature  in  1913. 

The  work  of  the  Department  is  operated  on  strictly  business  principles.  The  Health 
Officers,  County  Medical  .'Inspectors  and  Dispensary  Physicians  are  paid  in  fees  for  tjhe  hours 
actually  engaged  at  their  work,  and  the  Medical  Inspectors  of  Schools  are  paid  according  to  the! 


19 

number  of  school  rooms  they  inspect.  Every  voucher  for  time  or  expense  is  carefully  examined 
by  competent  auditors  before  it  is  paid  or  allowed  to  pass  to  the  Auditing  Divisions  of  the  ,State. 

Since  1905  the  death  rate  from  typhoid  fever  in  Pennsylvania  has  decreased  67  per  cent., 
and  the  general  death  rate  has  decreased  from  sixteen  to  fourteen  per  thousand  population.  This 
means  a  great  saving  of  life  and  an  increase  of  happiness  to  our  people. 

Pennsylvania's  health  laws  and  the  organization  of  its  Health  Department  have  attracted  the 
attention  of  the  world.  The  trained  organization  of  the  Department  of  Health  is  of  inestimable 
value  in  times  of  emergency  occasioned  by  disasters  which  from  time  to  time  may  visit  our  Com- 
monwealth, as  was  illustrated  at  Austin  in  1911,  and  on  occasions  when  great  crowds  of  people 
assemble,  such  as  the  Fiftieth  Anniversary  of  the  Battle  of  Gettysburg.  , 

The  Commission,  therefore,  recommends  : — - 

1.  That  a  liberal  appropriation  be  made  at  the  next  session  of  the  Legislature  for  the 
work  of  the  Bureau  of  Housing  in  the  Department  of  Health ; 

2.  That  a  larger  appropriation  be  made  for  medical  inspection  of  schools,  the  rate 
which  the  Department  of  Health  is  able  to  pay  under  the  present  appropriation  being  hardly 
sufficient  to  recompense  the  inspector  for  the  time  that  should  be  devoted  to  this  very  important 
work ; 

3.  That  the  Commissioner  of  Health  be  authorized  to  extend  the  work  of  the  dis- 
pensaries and  the  physicians  and  nurses  connected  therewith  in  preventive  and  sociological  work 
to  such  communicable  diseases  other  than  tuberculosis  as  in  the  judgment  of  the  Commissioner 
of  Health  might  be  included.  With  very  little  additional  expense  beneficial  results  might  be  thus 
secured  for  the  people  of  the  State ; 

4.  That  the  capacity  of  the  Sanatoria  at  Hamburg  and  Cresson  be  increased.  The 
size  of  the  waiting  lists  and  the  number  of  patients  being  treated  at  the  Sanatoria  indicate  that 
greater  benefits  to  the  people  of  the  State  can  thus  be  obtained  with  largely  the  same  over-head 
charges  and  with  a  lower  per  capita  cost  of  treatment. 

THE  HEALTH  OFFICER  OF  THE  PORT  OF  PHILADELPHIA 

Because  of  the  efficient  work  that  is  being  done  by  the  State  Quarantine  Board  and  the  State 
Department  of  Health,  in  addition  to  the  activity  of  the  Federal  officers  who  patrol  the  Delaware 
River,  we  feel  that  the  position  of  Health  Officer  of  the  Port  of  Philadelphia  is  entirely  unneces- 
sary. 

We  recommend  that  the  Statutes  creating  and  regulating  this  office  be  repealed,  and  that- 
all  duties  incident  to  or  a  part  of  that  office  be  transferred  by  legislation  to  the  State  Department 
of  Health. 

THE  STATE  QUARANTINE  BOARD 

The  State  Quarantine  Board  consists  of  7  members  who  serve  without  compensation.  The 
Quarantine  Station  is  located  at  Marcus  Hook  and  the  office  in  Philadelphia.  There  are  twenty 
salaried  positions  connected  with  the  Board,  four  of  which  were  created  by  Statute  and  sixteen 
by  appropriation.     The  annual  pay  roll  aggregates  $21,520.00. 

The  cooperation  at  Marcus  Hook  between  the  State  and  Federal  authorities  has  been  ad- 
vantageous to  the  entire  State  of  Pennsylvania.  We  feel,  however,  that  since  the  State  Commis- 
sioner of  Health  is  charged  with  the  duty  of  protecting  the  health  of  the  entire  citizenship  of  the 
Commonwealth  the  Quarantine  Station  should  also  be  under  his  direct  supervision. 

We,  therefore,  recommend : — 

That  legislation  be  enacted  placing  all  work  now  carried  on  by  the  State  Quarantine  Board 
under  the  direct  supervision  of  the  State  Commissioner  of  Health. 

.  That  the  General  Assembly  provide  a  liberal  appropriation  for  the  immediate  construction 
of  proper  and  sanitary  houses  of  detention  at  Marcus  Hook.

THE  DEPARTMENT  OF  AGRICULTURE 

The  Department  of  Agriculture,  including  the  Bureau  of  Chemistry,  hut  excluding  the 
Dairy  and  Food  Division,  the  Livestock  Sanitary  Board  and  the  Division  of  Economic  Zoology, 
consists  of  32  positions,  18  of  which  were  created  by  Statute,  13  by  appropriation  and  one  by) 
the  Contingent  Fund.     The  annual  pay  roll  aggregates  $56,880.00. 

This  Commission  feels  that  maintaining  a  Board  of  Agricultural  Instructors  and  Demon- 
strators, consisting  of  ten  persons  at  $2,100.00  each  per  annum,  is  not  the  best  method  for  helping 
the  agriculturists  of  the  State.  We  believe  that  practical  demonstrations  are  productive  of  better 
results  than  mere  answering  of  questions.  State  College  carries  on  a  satisfactory  course  of  this 
kind  and  there  is  no  need  for  a  Board  to  duplicate  the  work. 

We,  therefore,  recommend  that  this  Board  be  abolished ;  that  four  experimental  farms  be 
established,  one  in  each  corner  of  the  State,  and  that  a  recognized  expert  agriculturist  be  placed 
in  charge  of  each.  We  believe  that  the  practical  results  thus  obtained  would  be  much  more  far- 
reaching  and  beneficial  than  the  present  system. 

The  Division  known  as  the  Farmers'  Institute  in  this  Department  calls  attention  to  the 
inspectors  and  demonstrators  connected  with  the  Division  of  Economic  Zoology.  The  present  staff 
of  employed  lecturers  numbers  thirty-four.  Their  charges  vary  from  $3.00  to  $8.00  each  per  day 
and  expenses.  The  twenty-eight  Nursery  Inspectors  and  Demonstrators  in  the  Division  of  Eco- 
nomic Zoology  receive  from  $1,200.00  to  $1,700.00  each  per  annum.  During  the  closed  months 
of  the  year  these  men  are  practically  idle.  It  is  our  opinion  that  if  they  are  worth  retaining  in 
the  public  service  they  should  be  assigned  to  the  Farmers'  Institute  work. 

We,  therefore,  recommend  that  these  expert  Nursery  Inspectors  and  Demonstrators,  who 
are  familiar  with  the  soil  and  products  of  Pennsylvania,  be  utilized  by  the  Director  of  the  Farmers' 
Institute,  and  that  the  services  of  imported  lecturers  be  dispensed  with. 

We  believe  that  the  Dairy  and  Food  Division  and  the  State  Livestock  Sanitary  Board  call 
for  work  that  concerns  the  health  of  the  Commonwealth  more  than  it  does  agricultural  products. 
We  have  recommended  in  another  chapter  that  these  be  made  subdivisions  of  the  State  Depart- 
ment of  Health. 

THE  DAIRY  AND  FOOD  DIVISION 
THE  LIVESTOCK  SANITARY  BOARD 

The  Dairy  and  Food  Division  of  the  State  Government  is  at  present  connected  with  the 
Department  of  Agriculture  and  consists  of  thirty  positions,  twenty-nine  of  which  were  created  by 
Statute  and  one  by  Contingent  Fund,  with  an  annual  pay  roll  of  $46,604.00. 

The  Livestock  Sanitary  Board  is  also  a  sub-division  of  the  Department  of  Agriculture,  and 
consists  of  72  positions,  14  of  which  were  created  by  Statute  and  58  by  appropriation.  The  an- 
nual pay  roll  aggregates  $95,170.00. 

As  indicated  in  our  discussion  of  the  Department  of  Agriculture,  we  feel  that  these  two, 
divisions  should  be  connected  with  the  State  Department  of  Health  instead  of  the  Department  of 
Agriculture.  We  feel  that  much  of  the  inspection  work  of  these  two  departments  is  carried  on 
to  a  great  extent  by  the  Sanitary  Inspectors  of  the  State  Department  of  Health.  By  adding  these 
two  divisions  to  the  Department  of  Health,  the  combined  force  of  inspectors  from  all  three  depart- 
ments could  perform  more  efficient  service  for  the  entire  Commonwealth  and  eliminate  expensive 
duplication. 

The  Health  Department  inspectors  should  handle  the  sanitary  problems  connected  with 
dairy  farms,  and  the  Veterinarians  the  question  of  cattle. 

The  combination  recommended  above  would  also  make  possible  the  utilization  of  one 
laboratory  by  these  three  departments  instead  of  the  use  of  three  or  four  scattered  all  over  the 
State. 

We,  therefore,  recommend: — 


21 

1.  That  the  inspection  force  of  the  Dairy  and  Food  Division  so  far  as  the  regulation  of 
food  stuffs  is  concerned,  be  increased  from  19  to  25,  the  salaries  of  the  additional  agents  to  be 
$1,500.00  each  per  annum ; 

2.  That  legislation  be  enacted  placing  all  the  agents  and  inspectors  of  the  Livestock  Sani- 
tary Board  on  one  plane,  and  relieving  the  Department  of  its  present  handicap  by  having  certain 
inspectors  regulated  as  to  their  duties  by  Acts  of  the  General  Assembly.  We  feel  that  the  assign- 
ment of  duties  should  be  made  by  the  Head  of  the  Department; 

3.  That  legislation  be  enacted  giving  the  Livestock  Sanitary  inspectors  the  same  super- 
vision over  retail  as  they  exercise  over  wholesale  butchers  and  meat  dealers.  Under  the  present 
law  these  are  exempted,  and  insanitary  and  unsatisfactory  establishments  are  permitted  to  exist ; 

4.  That  legislation  be  enacted  transferring  the  Dairy  and  Food  Division  and  the  Live- 
stock Sanitary  Division  from  the  Department  of  Agriculture  to  the  State  Department  of  Health ; 

5.  That  the  Commissioner  of  Dairy  and  Food  and  the  State  Veterinarian  be  made  the 
heads  of  their  respective  divisions  without  the  assistance  of  their  advisory  Boards. 

THE  DEPARTMENT  OF  LABOR  AND  INDUSTRY 

The  Department  of  Labor  and  Industry  is  less  than  two  years  old  and  consists  of  94  posi- 
tions, 75  of  which  were  created  by  Statute  and  19  by  the  Contingent  Fund.  The  annual  pay  roll 
aggregates  $153,936.00. 

This  Department  absorbed  the  Department  of  Factory  Inspection  and  has  made  consider- 
able progress  along  the  new  lines  prescribed  for  its  activity. 

In  view  of  the  fact  that  the  State  Department  of  Health  has  developed  a  very  satisfactory 
system  for  examining  school  children  throughout  the  Commonwealth  we  recommend  that  the 
physicians  employed  for  this  work  also  be  used  by  the  Department  of  Labor  and  Industry  to 
examine  the  children  who  apply  for  certificates  entitling  them  to  go  to  work  at  the  age  of  fourteen. 

The  Bureau  of  Statistics  has  developed  rapidly,  and  we  feel  embodies  the  foundation  for 
considerable  enlargement.  All  statistics  should  be  compiled  by  this  Bureau.  It  is  duplicating 
work  to  permit  the  various  Departments  dealing  with  industrial  service  to  compile  separate  statis- 
tics. 

The  Bureau  of  Inspection  in  this  Department  is  an  important  one.  The  inspectors  must 
anticipate  conditions  that  might  cause  accidents  or  loss  of  life,  and  where  such  occur  they  must 
devise  methods  for  preventing  their  recurrence.  They  should  be  men  and  women  of  sound  judg- 
ment. The  present  force  of  fifty  Inspectors  is  inadequate.  In  many  districts  the  inspectors  can 
make  but  one  inspection  a  year.     We  feel  that  this  is  little  better  than  no  inspection. 

We  recommend  doubling  the  present  force  of  Inspectors  and  shifting  them  about  from 
time  to  time.     It  is  a  mistake  to  keep  any  Inspector  in  the  same  district  for  too  long  a  time. 

We  also  recommend  that  the  inspection  of  the  products  of  mattress  factories,  and  the  sani- 
tary condition  of  bake  shops  and  ice  cream  plants  be  transferred  to  the  Department  of  Health, 
where  it  properly  belongs. 

THE  ADJUTANT  GENERAL'S  DEPARTMENT 

The  Adjutant  General's  Department  is  composed  of  39  positions,  of  which  38  were  created 
by  Statute  and  one  by  the  Contingent  Fund.     The  annual  salaries  aggregate  $47,484.00. 

The  force  in  this  office  is  inadequate  and  the  compensation  paid  is  not  commensurate  with 
the  responsibility  of  the  service  performed. 

We,  therefore,  recommend  : — 

That  one  clerk  and  one  stenographer  be  added  to  the  force. 

That  the  salary  of  the  Deputy  Adjutant  General  be  increased  from  $2,500.00  to  $4,000.00 
per  annum;  the  salary  of  the  bookkeeper  from  $1,400.00  to  $1,800.00  per  annum;  and  the  salary 
of  each  stenographer  to  $1,200.00  per  annum. 


22 

THE  BANKING  DEPARTMENT 

The  Banking  Department  consists  of  34  positions,  33  of  which  were  created  by  Statute 
and  one  of  which  is  paid  from  the  Contingent  Fund.  This  Department  expends  $84,400.00  an- 
nually for  salaries.  The  work  requires  eternal  vigilance,  for  upon  this  Department  the  public 
must  depend  for  the  safety  of  its  financial  institutions.  Its  growth  since  its  creation  in  1892  is- 
best  shown  by  a  comparison  of  figures  compiled  at  that  time  with  those  available  June  1st,  of 
the  present  year. 

The  Institutions  supervised  by  the  Banking  Department  follow : — 

1892  June  1st,  1914 

Banks 84  Banks, 179 

Savings  Institutions,  16  Savings  Institutions,  11 

Trust  Companies, 72  Trust  Companies, 294 


Total,   172  Total,    484 

In  1892  the  aggregate  assets  of  these  Institutions  were  $310,807,411.88;  on  June  1,  1914, 
$1,286,904,136.84. 

The  Trust  Funds,  kept  separate  and  apart  from  the  companies,  in  1892  were  $20,685,480.31. 
On  June  1st,  1914,  Private  Trust  Funds  aggregated  $1,121,981,228.44. 

Corporate  Trust  Funds,  not  examined  in  1892,  but  which  now  form  a  large  part  of  the 
business  of  Trust  Companies,  amounted  to  $3,621,860,075.56. 

In  1892  the  Capital  invested  represented  $44,934,641.68.     On  June  1st,  1914,  $120,467,819.95. 

The  Surplus  Fund  in  1892  was  $19,388,296.52.     On  June  1st,  1914,  $172,410,717.89. 

The  Undivided  Profits  jn  1892  were  $12,890,144.10.     On  June  1st,  1914,  $33,509,249.25. 

The  Deposits  in  1892  were  $201,795,429.28.     On  June  1st,  1914,  they  were  $923,269,499.71. 

The  number  of  deposit  accounts  under  the  supervision  of  the  Examiners  in  this  Depart- 
ment on  June  1st,  1914,  was  2,260,469. 

The  work  of  supervising  Building  and  Loan  Associations  was  made  the  duty  of  this  De- 
partment by  legislative  enactment  in  1895,  at  which  time  the  number  of  Associations  was  1,131 
and  the  total  assets  $99,519,917.50.  Statistics  for  the  year  1913  show  that  there  are  1710  Asso- 
ciations at  the  present  time  with  total  assets  of  $233,564,455.60. 

In  addition  to  the  Building  and  Loan  Associations  this  Department  has  been  given  super- 
vision over  the  private  bankers  of  the  State.  To  date  108  licenses  have  been  issued.  At  the 
present  rate  of  increase  this  work  will  soon  become  of  sufficient  importance  to  demand  the  entire 
attention  of  several  Examiners. 

We,  therefore,  recommend  that  the  force  of  Examiners  be  increased  from  21  to  30,  and 
that  the  rate  of  compensation  for  new  Examiners  be  made  the  same  as  that  of  the  old  ones. 

We  also  recommend  that  instead  of  the  present  expensive  system  of  receiverships  the  Com- 
missioner of  Banking  be  authorized  by  legislative  enactment  to  settle  the  affairs  of  Institutions 
that  become  impaired.  This,  we  believe,  would  be  a  more  expeditious  and  inexpensive  manner 
of  conducting  the  public's  affairs. 

We  also  recommend  that  the  Department  be  given  an  additional  Deputy  at  $4,000.00  per 
annum  and  one  additional  clerk  at  $1,400.00. 

THE  DEPARTMENT  OF  STATE  FIRE  MARSHAL 

The  State  Fire  Marshal's  Department  consists  of  26  positions,  6  of  which  were  created  by 
Statute,  9  by  Appropriation,  and  11  depend  upon  the  Contingent  Fund.  The  Act  creating  this 
Department  provides  a  per  diem  rate  for  the  clerks.  This,  we  believe,  was  intended  to  cover  tem- 
porary and  not  permanent  attaches. 


23 

With  this  Department  still  in  its  infancy  we  are  reluctant  to  recommend  additional  power. 
We  do  recommend,  however,  that  legislation  be  enacted  abolishing  the  per  diem  basis  of  com- 
pensation and  specifying  an  annual  salary  for  each  position  needed  for  the  effipient  administra- 
tion of  the  Department. 

THE  INSURANCE  DEPARTMENT 

The  Insurance  Department  consists  of  35  positions,  30  of  which  were  created  by  Statute, 
3  by  appropriation,  and  2  by  the  Contingent  Fund.     The  annual  pay  roll  aggregates  $74,360.00. 

This  Department  was  reorganized  by  the  General  Assembly  of  1911,  and  under  the  circum- 
stances we  feel  should  be  given  adequate  time  to  prove  its  efficiency.  For  that  reason  we  with- 
hold recommendations  and  criticism. 

THE  DEPARTMENT  OF  INTERNAL  AFFAIRS 

Inasmuch  as  one  Legislature  has  spoken  and  expressed  its  approval  of  abolishing  the  De-' 
partment  of  Internal  Affairs,  we  feel  this  matter  and  the  future  of  the  Department  is  without  the 
pale  of  our  jurisdiction  and  should  be  left  to  the  superior  wisdom  of  the  General  Assembly  soon 
to  convene. 

THE  DEPARTMENT  OF  INTERNAL  AFFAIRS 
BUREAU  OF  STANDARDS 

The  Bureau  of  Standards  in  the  Department  of  Internal  Affairs  consists  of  three  offices, 
a  chief,  a  stenographer  and  a  clerk.     The  annual  pay  roll  aggregates  $4,200.00. 

The  Bureau  was  created  by  an  Act  of  the  General  Assembly  of  1911,  and  its  scope  enlarged 
by  an  Act  of  1913. 

This  Bureau  exercises  supervisory  jurisdiction  over  the  Sealers  of  Weights  and  Measures 
in  the  67  counties  of  the  State. 

We  recommend  that  the  salary  of  the  Chief  of  the  Bureau  be  increased  from  $2,000.00  to 
$3,000.00  per  anum ;  that  the  salary  of  the  clerk  be  increased  to  $1,800.00  per  annum;  and  that 
the  stenographer  be  continued  at  $1,200.00  per  annum. 

THE  DEPARTMENT  OF  MINES 

The  Department  of  Mines  consists  of  63  positions,  61  of  which  were  created  by  Statute  and 
two  by  the  Contingent  Fund.     The  annual  pay  roll  aggregates  $167,436.00. 

The  Department  is  divided  into  an  office  force  and  a  field  force :  the  latter  consisting  of 
21  Anthracite  and  28  Bituminous  inspectors,  each  of  whom  receives  $3,000.00  per  annum  for  his 
services.  In  the  examination  of  this  Department  it  has  come  to  our  notice  that  the  Anthracite 
inspectors  are  elected  by  the  voters  of  the  various  Anthracite  counties  in  the  State.  We  regard 
this  is  a  bad  practice, -fend  feel  that  men  doing  work  of  this  kind  should  be  appointed  i so  as  to 
enable  them  to  devote  their  entire  time  to  the  discharge  of  their  duties. 

We,  therefore,  recommend  that  the  law  be  amended  so  that  Anthracite  as  well  as  Bitumin- 
ous  inspectors  will  be   appointed   by   the   Governor. 

In  the  matter  of  Bituminous  inspectors  we  feel  that  the  increasing  tonnage  in  that  region 
warrants  our  recommendation  to  increase  the  number  of  inspectors  from  twenty-eight  to  thirty. 
Too  much  safety  cannot  be  provided  for  the  men  who  earn  their  livelihood  beneath  the  surface  of 
the  earth,  and  the  greatest  precaution  is  a  system  of  frequent  and  thorough  inspection. 

Large  quantities  of  stone,  slate,  ore  and  other  minerals  are  mined  and  quarried  in  this  State 
with  practically  no  supervision.     These  industries  annually  produce  millions  of  dollars  worth  of 


24 

materials,  and  employ  thousands  of  men  in  their  operation.  For  the  protection  of  these  employees 
we  recommend  that  legislation  be  enacted  providing  for  two  inspectors  to  supervise  the  mining 
and  quarrying  of  all  minerals  other  than  coal.  We  recommend  that  the  salaries  of  these  be  fixed 
at  $2,000.00  each  per  annum. 

THE  OFFICE  OF  THE  SECRETARY  OF  THE  COMMONWEALTH 

The  Department  of  State  consists  of  31  positions,  27  of  which  were  created  by  Statute, 
and  4  by  Contingent  Fund.     The  annual  pay  roll  aggregates  $49,568.00. 

We  have  no  criticism  to  offer  of  the  organization  or  administration  of  this  Department. 
We  feel,  however,  that  some  of  the  salaries  are  inadequate. 

The  office  of  Corporation  Clerk,  for  instance,  is  a  very  important  one.  Through  his  hands 
daily  pass  many  applications  for  charters  for  corporations.  The  salary  of  $2,200.00  per  annum 
is,  in  our  opinion,  inadequate  for  such  an  office.  We  recommend  that  it  be  increased  to  $4,000.00 
per  annum. 

We  also  offer  the  following  recommendations  for  increases  in  salaries : 

Assistant  Corporation  Clerk,   $1,800.00  to  $2,000.00  per  annum ; 

Charter  Clerk,    $1,400.00  to  $1,600.00  per  annum ; 

Registry  Clerk,    $1,500.00  to  $1,800.00  per  annum ; 

Assistant  Chief  Clerk, $1,400.00  to  $1,800.00  per  annum ; 

Assistant  Commission  Clerk, $1,400.00  to  $1,800.00  per  annum. 


THE  DEPARTMENT  OF  STATE  POLICE 

The  State  Police  Department,  including  officers,  office  force  and  field  force,  consists  of  230 
men.  The  annual  pay  roll  aggregates  $234,950.00.  Considering  the  vast  amount  of  territory 
these  minions  of  the  law  cover,  the  moral  effect  they  have  on  the  community  in  which  they  operate, 
and  the  protection  they  afford  the  entire  State,  the  cost  in  comparison  is  infinitesimal. 

We  recommend  that  the  present  force  be  increased  by  two  troops,  or  1 10  men,  and  that  the 
Department  establish  substations  of  three  men  each,  twenty-five  miles  apart,  throughout  the  entire 
State.  This  would  provide  patrols  from  each  sub-station  that  would  be  in  constant  touch  with 
the  patrols  from  other  sub-stations,  thus  providing  a  net  work  of  sub-stations  and  patrols  over  the 
entire  State  with  the  exception  of  the  larger  cities. 

These  sub-stations  could  be  established,  and  salaries  and  equipment  provided  for  the  addi- 
tional troopers,  for  approximately  $90,000.00  per  annum.  We,  therefore,  recommend  that  the 
necessary  legislation  be  enacted  to  provide  for  this  increase. 

An  increased  force  of  State  Police  would  be  invaluable  to  the  Fire  Wardens,  Game  War- 
dens, Forest  Rangers  and  Fish  Wardens.  We  believe  that  such  a  force  would  also  put  an  end  to 
the  speeding  automobiles  that  now  make  many  of  our  highways  extremely  dangerous  to  pedes- 
trians. k 

THE  STATE  TREASURY  DEPARTMENT 

The  Treasury  Department  consists  of  29  positions,  23  of  which  were  created  by  Statute,  4 
by  appropriation  and  2  by  the  Contingent  Fund.     The  annual  salaries  aggregate  $55,444.00. 

If  the  State  Treasurer  is  to  have  the  protection  that  he  deserves  in  the  disbursement  of 
millions  of  dollars,  the  Auditor  General's  Department  should  be  so  constituted  that  it  could  give 
the  accounts  careful  and  prompt  auditing.  In  our  discussion  of  the  Auditor  General's  Department 
we  have  recommended  the  removal  of  tax  matters  from  that  Department  for  that  reason. 


25 

The  General  Assembly  has  from  time  to  time  imposed  additional  duties  upon  the  State 
Treasury  Department.  This  Commission  has  seen  fit  to  recommend  a  semi-monthly  pay  system 
for  State  employees,  which  will  increase  the  duties  of  the  Treasury  employees.  In  view  of  recent 
increases  and  the  recommended  change  we  feel  that  the  force  of  this  Department  should  be  in- 
creased and  that  certain  salaries  should  be  readjusted. 

The  grade  of  employees  in  this  Department  must  always  be  the  highest,  and  the  salaries 
should  be  commensurate  with  the  qualifications  required. 

We,  therefore,  recommend  that  the  following  positions  be  created: — 

1  Assistant  Warrant  Clerk,  at $2,000  00 

1  Assistant  Appropriation  Clerk,  at $1,800  00 

We  also  recommend  increases  in  the  salaries  of  the  following  positions : — 

Corporation  Clerk,   $3,000.00  to  $3,500.00 

Assistant  Cashier $2,500.00  to  $3,500.00 

Assistant  Corporation  Clerk,  $2,200.00  to  $2,500.00 

Bond  Clerk,   $2,500.00  to  $3,000.00 

Revenue  Clerk,   $1,600.00  to  $1,800.00 

Warrant  Clerk,   $1,600.00  to  $2,400.00 

Payment  Clerk,  $1,400.00  to  $1,800.00 

Mailing  Clerk,  $1,500.00  to  $2,400.00 

THE  STATE  BOARD  OF  PUBLIC  CHARITIES 

The  State  Board  of  Public  Charities  consists  of  eleven  members,  one  of  whom,  the  General 
Agent  and  Secretary,  receives  a  salary  of  $5,000.00  per  annum.  Under  the  Act  of  1869,  amended 
by  the  Act  of  1913,  this  Board  has  unlimited  authority  to  supervise  the  management  of  all  chari- 
table, eleemosynary  and  correctional  Institutions  within  this  State.  Its  employees  number  seven. 
The  two  assistant  General  Agents  are  required  to  make  annual  inspections  of  the  Institutions  re- 
ceiving State  aid. 

When  the  size  of  this  State  and  the  number  of  Institutions  annually  examined  are  con- 
sidered, it  is  apparent  that  a  force  of  two  inspectors  is  entirely  inadequate.  We,  therefore,  recom- 
mend that  this  force  be  increased  to  six ;  that  two  of  them  devote  their  time  to  hospitals,  two  to 
homes  and  the  remaining  two  to  correctional  institutions.  We  also  recommend  that  the  districts 
covered  by  these  inspectors  be  changed  from  time  to  time  so  that  they  will  not  examine  the  same 
institutions  continually,  and  that  they  be  relieved  of  all  office  duties. 

Under  the  present  system  the  supervision  of  the  books  and  accounts  of  the  various  State- 
aided  Instituions  is  left  entirely  in  the  hands  of  the  traveling  auditors  of  the  Auditor  General's 
Department.  We  have  recommended  elsewhere  that  this  force  of  auditors  be  increased  suffi- 
ciently to  enable  them  to  make  monthly  examination  of  these  books. 

THE  STATE  BOARD  OF  PUBLIC  CHARITIES 
THE  COMMITTEE  ON  LUNACY 

The  Committee  on  Lunacy,  which  is  composed  of  five  members  of  the  State  Board  of  Public 
Charities  and  employs  one  secretary  at  $3,000.00  per  annum,  one  clerk  at  $1,500.00  per  annum,  and 
one  stenographer  at  $1,000.00  per  annum,  is  one  of  the  most  important  Commissions  now  attend- 
ing to  State  business.  To  it  is  intrusted  the  discharge  of  many  important  duties.  The  members  of 
the  Committee  serve  without  compensation,  and  since  the  creation  of  this  body  have  given  the 
Commonwealth  the  benefit  of  untiring  and  efficient  service. 

Since  the  creation  of  this  body,  however,  this  branch  of  the  State's  care  for  her  wards  has 
greatly  increased,  and  now  calls  for  an  increased  force  to  properly  carry  it  on. 


26 

We,  therefore,  recommend  that  the  Commission  be  given  the  service  of  an  expert  inves- 
tigator at  an  annual  salary  of  $5,000.00.  The  Secretary  of  the  Board,  by  reason  of  the  qualifica- 
tions required  to  fill  the  office,  is  in  position  to  render  efficient  assistance  to  the  Investigator  as 
well  as  to  the  State  Insane  Asylums. 

We  also  recommend  that  legislation  be  enacted  giving  the  Committee  on  Lunacy  super-' 
vision  over  all  State  wards  mentally  defective. 

THE  STATE  INSTITUTIONS 

On  account  of  the  limited  time  afforded  this  Commission  to  conduct  the  investigations 
intended  by  the  Joint  Resolution  creating  it  we  were  unable  to  give  State  institutions  the  thorough 
examinations  that  they  merited.  By  propounding  a  series  of  questions,  however,  concerning  their 
management  and  the  salaries  paid  their  attaches,  and  by  examining  the  reports  made  to  the  State 
Board  of  Charities  and  the  Auditor  General,  we  have  gained  a  general  knowledge  of  the  adminis- 
tration of  this  branch  of  the  Government. 

We  were  impressed  with  the  fact  that  in  most  instances  the  boards  of  directors  or  trustees 
are  secondary  rather  than  paramount  to  the  superintendents  of  the  institutions.  In  several  in- 
stances the  latter  have  lost  entire  sight  of  the  fact  that  they  are  public  servants  and  that  the  in- 
stitutions under  their  direction  belong  to  the  people.  Their  correspondence  is  indifferently  treated, 
while  visitors  frequently  have  difficulty  in  securing  even  courteous  treatment. 

This  kind  of  management  is  inexcusable.  Efficiency  at  the  sacrifice  of  courtesy  should  not 
be  tolerated.  Whether  it  is  due  to  lack  of  legislation  on  the  subject  of  the  superintendent's  tenure 
in  office,  or  whether  it  is  the  personality  in  each  instance  we  were  unable  to  ascertain. 

The  question  of  supplies  for  these  institutions  has  developed  into  a  very  important  one. 
In  most  cases  the  general  supplies  are  similar,  but  the  prices  entirely  different. 

There  is  also  a  great  dissimilarity  in  the  compensation  paid  attaches.  We  have  not  lost 
sight  of  the  fact  that  individual  merit  and  abilty  should  be  to  a  great  extent  the  measure  of  pay- 
ment, but  we  do  feel  that  there  should  be  some  restriction  on  amounts  to  which  these  salaries  may 
grow. 

We  recommend  that  the  printing  and  binding  required  by  State  institutions  be  supplied  by 
the  Department  of  Public  Printing  and  Binding  in  Harrisburg. 

THE  PENNSYLVANIA  STATE  COLLEGE 

The  Pennsylvania  State  College  is  a  State  institution  founded  under  joint  agreement  be- 
tween the  Federal  Government  and  the  Commonwealth  of  Pennsylvania. 

This  college  has  in  a  large  measure  answered  the  demand  of  the  poor  boys  of  Pennsyl- 
vania for  a  higher  education  along  certain  lines.  For  this  reason,  coupled  with  the  fact  that  as 
an  educational  institution  it  has  made  praiseworthy  progress,  we  commend  it. 

The  property  connected  with  State  College  and  owned  by  the  same  is  valued  at  $2,000,- 
000.00.  It  includes  approximately  1,200  acres  of  farm  land  which  is  utilized  for  the  instruction 
of  about  3,500  students  in  scientific  agricultural,  engineering  and  mining  work.  The  agricultural 
training  supplied  by  this  institution  is  not  restricted  to  the  student  body,  but  by  a  system  of  corre- 
spondence reaches  a  large  part  of  the  population  of  Pennsylvania. 

The  faculty  of  this  institution  consists  of  260  persons.  The  average  salary  is  $1,256.00  per 
annum.    The  salaries  are  lower  than  those  of  most  state  colleges. 

■   We,  therefore,  recommend  that  the  trustees  make  such  increases  as  are  possible  under  ex- 
isting conditions. 

Much  can  be  said  in  commendation  of  the  Agricultural  Experiment  Station  connected  with 
the  college.  The  co-operation  of  this  station  with  the  Dairy  and  Food  Division  of  the  State  Gov- 
ernment has  brought  about  good  results. 


27     . 

We  also  recommend  that  Forest  Academy,  now  connected  with  State  Forestry  Department, 
be  consolidated  with  State  College. 

While  this  institution  has  been  successfully  developed  so  far,  we  wish  to  caution  the  trustees 
not  to  advance  along  too  many  lines,  but  to  bear  in  mind  that  State  College  was  created  primarily 
as  an  agricultural  institution,  and  that  its  development  should  be  principally  along  that  line.  It 
was  never  intended  to  assume  the  proportions  of  a  university.  There  is  plenty  for  it  to  do  in  its 
own  restricted  sphere. 

In  conclusion  we  recommend  that  the  General  Assembly  continue  to  deal  generously  with 
this  institution. 

THE  NEW  WESTERN  PENITENTIARY 

In  undertaking  the  construction  of  a  modern  penitentiary  in  Centre  county,  the  Common- 
wealth of  Pennsylvania  has  taken  an  important  step  toward  improvement  in  the  management  of 
her  penal  institutions.  The  comprehensive  plan  on  which  this  institution  is  being  constructed 
provides  for  both  outdoor  and  indoor  employment  for  the  inmates.  The  5,000  acres  of  fertile 
land  connected  with  the  institution  will  be  tilled  by  the  inmates,  and  the  products  should  supply 
the  wants  of  many  State  institutions.  The  workshops,  equipped  with  up-to-date  apparatus,  will 
not  only  provide  employment  but  also  instruction  for  the  1,200  inmates  who  will  be  transferred 
from  the  Western  Penitentiary  now  located  in  Allegheny  county. 

The  construction  of  this  institution  is  being  carried  on  under  the  direction  of  John  Francies, 
Warden  of  the  Western  Penitentiary,  and  the  plans  are  largely  the  product  of  his  brain. 


THE  STATE'S  INSURANCE 

The  geographical  location  of  State  institutions  and  State  buildings  relieves  them  from  much 
of  the  danger  to  which  other  buildings  are  subjected.  In  spite  of  this  they  are  all  protected  by 
elaborate  insurance  systems  at  an  enormous  cost. 

The  destruction  of  State  institutions  by  fire  is  unknown  in  this  State.  Some  of  them  have 
suffered  loss  from  time  to  time,  but  to  no  appreciable  extent.  We  see  no  reason  why  the  Com- 
monwealth of  Pennsylvania  should  not  carry  its  own  insurance  instead  of  supporting  private 
enterprises. 

We,  therefore,  recommend  that  the  next  General  Assembly  appropriate  $1,000,000.00  as  the 
nucleus  of  a  sinking  fund ;  that  the  General  Assembly  of  1917  appropriate  $500,000.00  additional 
for  this  fund;  and  that  immediately  thereafter  insurance  policies  on  all  State  institutions  be  can- 
celled, and  the  sinking  fund  increased  from  time  to  time  to  such  proportions  as  in  the  wisdom  of 
the  revenue  and  finance  board  (proposed  in  a  previous  chapter),  would  provide  ample  protection 
for  the  money  invested  in  State  property. 


THE  LEGISLATURE  AND  JUDICIARY 

The  resolution  creating  this  Commission  provides :  "It  shall  be  the  duty  of  this  Commis- 
sion to  investigate  the  number,  character  of  duties,  and  compensation  of  all  persons  in  the  employ; 
of  the  State." 

On  account  of  the  limited  time  given  the  Commission  to  conduct  its  investigations,  we  have 
found  it  impossible  to  pursue  our  work  beyond  the  Departments  comprising  the  Executive  branch 
of  the  Government.  Most  of  the  employees  of  the  Legislative  branch  are  paid  on  a  per  diem  basis 
and  the  proper  time  to  examine  their  efficiency  and  the  economy  of  the  system  is  during  a  session 
of  the  Legislature. 


28 

THE  LEGISLATIVE  REFERENCE  BUREAU 

The  Legislative  Reference  Bureau  consists  of  21  positions,  19  of  which  were  created  by 
statute  and  two  by  the  contingent  fund.    The  annual  pay-roll  is  $30,360.00. 

The  assistance  it  gives  the  members  of  the  General  Assembly  during  the  biennial  session 
and  the  assistance  it  gives  the  public  and  the  Departments  of  the  State  Government  between  ses- 
sions of  the  General  Assembly  is  worth  the  money  expended  for  its  maintenance. 

THE  STATUTES-AT-LARGE  COMMISSION 

The  work  of  compiling  and  publishing  the  Statutes-at-Large  has  been  going  on  since  1891. 
Between  1891  and  1911  the  appropriations  for  this  work  aggregated  $84,000.00.  The  Legislature 
of  1913  appropriated  an  additional  $5,000.00  to  complete  the  work,  which  makes  the  total  appro- 
priation $89,000.00. 

The  statutes  when  compiled  will  comprise  sixteen  volumes.  The  first  volume  has  not  yet 
been  completed  and  is  to  contain  the  index.  The  fifteenth  volume  has  just  appeared.  The  first 
thirteen  volumes  cost  approximately  $84,000.00,  or  $6,461.00  per  volume.  The  delay  in  publishing 
these  statutes  is,  in  the  opinion  of  this  Commission,  without  justification. 

We,  therefore,  recommend  that  legislation  be  enacted  repealing  the  acts  concerning  the 
Commission  for  the  compilation  and  publication  of  the  statutes-at-large  and  transferring  the  work 
to  the  Legislative  Reference  Bureau. 

THE  BOARD  OF  PARDONS 

The  Board  of  Pardons  consists  of  the  Lieutenant  Governor,  the  Attorney  General,  the  Sec- 
retary of  the  Commonwealth  and  the  Secretary  of  Internal  Affairs,  each  of  whom  receives  $500.00 
per  annum  for  his  services;  a  secretary  at  $1,000.00  per  annum,  a  clerk  at  $500.00  per  annum,  a 
recorder  at  $500.00  per  annum,  a  tipstaff  and  a  messenger  at  $400.00  each  per  annum. 

We  recommend  that  the  office  of  secretary  be  continued  at  $1,000.00  per  annum,  that  the 
offices  of  recorder  and  clerk  be  combined  at  one  salary  of  $500.00,  and  that  the  offices  of  tipstaff 
and  messenger  be  combined  at  one  salary,  namely,  $500.00.  This  force  will  be  entirely  adequate 
to  take  care  of  the  clerical  duties  of  the  Board  of  Pardons. 


THE  STATE  BOARD  OF  CENSORS  OF  MOTION  PICTURES 

The  Pennsylvania  State  Board  of  Censors  of  Motion  Pictures  has  been  in  existence  so  short 
a  time,  that  in  justice  to  the  officials  and  subordinates  we  withhold  criticism  and  recommendations. 


THE  ELEVATED  AND  UNDERGROUND  PASSENGER  RAILWAYS  BOARD 

The  Board  to  pass  upon  the  Necessity  for  the  Construction  of  Elevated  and  Underground 
Passenger  Railways,  created  by  an  Act  approved  June  20,  1901,  and  composed  of  the  Governor, 
the  Secretary  of  the  Commonwealth  and  the  Attorney  General,  who  serve  without  compensation, 
and  a  clerk  who  receives  $750.00  per  annum,  should  be  abolished. 

We  recommend  that  the  Public  Service  Commission  absorb  and  discharge  all  duties  that 
may  have  been  imposed  upon  this  Board,  and  that  legislation  to  that  end  be  enacted. 


29 

THE  BOARD  OF  PROPERTY 

The  Board  of  Property,  which  consists  of  the  Secretary  of  the  Commonwealth,  the  Secre- 
tary of  Internal  Affairs  and  the  Attorney  General,  and  a  clerk  at  $400.00  per  annum,  is,  in  the 
opinion  of  this  Commission,  a  body  without  duties  to  perform. 

We,  therefore,  recommend  that  the  act  creating  it  be  repealed  and  that  all  duties  heretofore 
exercised  by  it  be  transferred  by  Act  of  the  General  Assembly  to  the  Commissioner  of  Forestry. 

THE  COMMISSION  OF  SOLDIERS'  ORPHAN  SCHOOLS 

The  Commission  of  Soldiers'  Orphan  Schools  is  composed  of  eleven  persons,  who  serve 
without  compensation.  The  Commission  has  three  employees,  whose  annual  salaries  aggregate 
$3,150.00.  The  work  of  these  employees  has  been  reduced  to  a  minimum  and  we,  therefore,  recom- 
mend that  the  Legislature  consider  the  advisability  of  transferring  the  duties  of  this  Commission 
to  the  State  Board  of  Education  and  abolishing  the  clerical  force  now  employed  by  it. 


Respectfully  submitted, 


HARRY  S.  McDEVITT, 

Chairman.
